Changing Dimension Members on the Page Axis


You can use each dimension in the page filter to filter the data in the grid and chart.

  1. Select a dimension member in the drop down list. Multiple dimensions can reside on the page axis.
  2. When the drop down list closes, the selected dimension member appears in place of the dimension name. The content of the chart and grid data updates immediately to reflect the new view.

The content of the drop down list changes to show the related members of that dimension. The hierarchy for dimensions and their members are as follows:

Members are indented according to their place in the hierarchy. If the selection is changed, the content of the drop down list changes dynamically. In the following example, the dimension Market is on the page filter.

Note

Relationships to the selection are shown in parenthesis for reference, but they do not appear on the actual page filter in an application. For example, if the Market dimension is on the page filter, the drop down list initially displays the following:

    Market (selected member)
      East (child)
      West (child)

If East is selected:

    Market (ancestor)
      East (selected member)
        New York (child)
        Maine (child)
      West (sibling)

If Maine is selected:

    Market (ancestor)
      East (ancestor)
        New York (sibling)
        Maine (selected member)
