Alteryx Designer x64 Select & Join Tool

In the Alteryx Select and Join tools, typically you can select/de-select specific columns in the configuration panel. In the new version of Alteryx (Alteryx Designer x64), I noticed that there are no checkboxes in the first column of the configuration panel. Is there a setting that may need to be changed or is this feature now present in a different tool? Please let me know. Thanks!

Hello @scohen24 

 

I'm on 2020.2 and you can use "Select" tool and the embedded select of "Join" to select columns. Do you mind sharing a screenshot? That may help. TY!

In the older version, there were boxes that you could click to include/exclude columns from the output, but they are no longer there. I have attached a screenshot for your reference. Thanks!

The checkboxes should still be there. Can you try expanding your configuration window to make it larger?

 

Alternatively, it might be your resolution. Can you try restarting your computer and seeing if it resets?

I expanded the configuration window and the checkboxes are still not there. I also restarted my computer and had no luck with that either.

 

I spoke with a colleague who also has this new version and her tools did not have the select feature anymore as well.

Hi @scohen24 

 

this is a Windows scaling issue. Open the start menu, type "scaling" and open that settings box. You probably have something larger than 100% and/or make the text bigger selected. Change these to the default options and that should resolve your issue.

That worked, thank you!
