Assign data columns to a drop-down box

To display data in a widget, you must assign the relevant data source columns to the required widget elements (for example, to the X-axis).

A drop-down box provides you with a selection of values in a drop-down menu for you to filter other widgets.

Prerequisite

You have assigned a data source to the widget.

Procedure

  1. Click a widget on the dashboard. The relevant properties dialog is displayed.
  2. Click the Assign data Assign data icon to edit the data source assignment.

    The Assign data (2/2) dialog is displayed.

  3. Assign a Data column to the Visible column element using drag and drop.
  4. Optionally, assign one or more columns to the More columns (invisible) element using drag and drop. The columns are not displayed in the widget. They are used for filtering widgets only. See Define filters for widgets for details.

The data source columns are assigned to the widget elements.
