Enabling Show and Hide


You can enable and disable the Show and Hide feature by toggling its check box on the data options dialog box. When enabled, the Show and Hide feature allows you to Show Only and Hide selected members in a grid or chart, or Unhide All members.

When you show or hide an item, the change only affects the display of the member, and does not affect any Alphablox calculated members in the grid. For example, if you have a calculated member with the formula:

Variance = Actual - Budget

And you remove the member "Budget," then the resulting Alphablox calculated member "Variance" would show would still show the result of Actual - Budget.

To enable or disable Show and Hide:

  1. In the data options dialog box, check the Enable show & hide check box. By default, the box is unchecked.
  2. Click the OK button to close the dialog box and implement the changes. Click Apply to implement the changes without closing the dialog box.
