If dimensions in a mask are used as filter, lookup or on the axis, the names of the dimension elements can be displayed alternatively with the names of their attributes.
Configuration
Alternative dimension element names can be configured over DisplayOptions in Input masks or over DisplayOptionsFilter in Row views oder Single row masks.
An alternative representation can only refer to existing attributes of the dimensions.
To change the representation you have to open the editor for alternative dimension element names by the dimension properties DisplayOptions or DisplayOptionsFilter.
Editor for alternative dimension element names
In the editor for alternative dimension element names you can add all attributes of the type Text.
| Hinweis If the dimension has no attribute of the type Text, it's not possible to add alternative dimension element names. |
In the editor you can add an alternative dimension element name by clicking on the Add-Button.
The following properties have to be set:
- AttributName: the list of the possible attributes of the dimension
- Caption: name for the alternative representation in the mask
- UseByDefault: if this is True, the dimension will be captured by default with this attribute
Display
If you have configured alternative dimension element names for a dimension, you can change the actual representation by opening the context menu. You can open the context menu on dimension in the filter or on the axis, but not on lookups.
The chosen alternative representation for the dimension will be applied to:
- the filter
- the axis
- the lookup
Beispiel
The dimension Products has an attribute Produkt ID, which was configured in the mask Revenue in actual data. If you choose this alternative representation, the representation of the dimension Products will be changed in the filter as well as on the axis.
