Hi - I am absolutely new to Alteryx. Going through the Beginner / Intermediate user videos on the website and trying to do some exercise along. 

 

I have 2 files that i intend to join, but i don't need all fields from the 2nd file, hence using the Select tool. 

 

Here's the problem,

- I am not getting the Check box option on the left of Field name, type, etc..in the Config window

- If i highlight the rows / fields that i need and then select the option to "select highlighted fields", that doesn't work either.

 

PFB the snapshot. PS : I tried to uninstall Alteryx and re-installed again to check if that solves the issue. But it did not.

Hi @shyamal63

 

Past clients who have experienced this issue is due to the windows display settings.

 

Can you go to Control Panel>>Display>>and set display to smaller (100%)

 

Please let me know if the tick boxes return to the select tool

 

Best,

Hi Jordan, 

 

Awesome...Thanks for your quick response. It works now. 

 

If it's a known issue, is the dev team looking into this?
