Interactivity

To enable interaction between the Chart and other dashboard items, you can use the interactivity features, as Master Filtering and Drill-Down.

Master Filtering

You can use the Chart dashboard item as a filter for other dashboard items. To learn more about filtering concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Master Filtering topic.

The Chart supports filtering by argument, series or points.

  • Filtering by arguments allows you to make other dashboard items display only data related to selected argument values by clicking series points.

  • When filtering by series is enabled, you can click a series point to make other dashboard items display only data related to the selected series.

    wdd-chart-master-filter-series

  • Filtering by points makes other dashboard items display only data related to the selected point.

    wdd-chart-master-filter-points

To configure filtering type, open the Chart's Interactivity menu and select Arguments, Series or Points as a target dimension.

To reset filtering, use the Clear Master Filter button (the wdd-master-filtering-icon icon) in the Chart's caption.

Drill-Down

The drill-down capability allows you to change the detail level of data displayed in the Chart dashboard item. To learn more about drill-down concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Drill-Down topic.

The Chart supports drill-down on argument or series values.

  • To drill down on arguments, click a series point to view a detail chart for the corresponding argument value.

    wdd-chart-drill-down-arguments

    Drill-down on arguments requires that the Arguments section contains several data items, from the least detailed to the most detailed item.

    wdd-chart-drill-down-set-arguments

  • When drill-down on series is enabled, you can click a series point to view a detail chart for the corresponding series.

    wdd-chart-drill-down-series

    Drill-down on series requires that the Series section contains several data items, from the least detailed to the most detailed item.

    wdd-chart-drill-down-set-series

Note

In OLAP mode, you can perform drill-down for either a hierarchy data item or several dimension attributes.

To specify drill-down type, go to the Chart's Interactivity menu and set Arguments or Series as a target dimension.

wdd-chart-interactivity-set-series

To return to the previous detail level, click the Drill Up button (the wdd-drill-up-icon icon) in the Chart's caption.
