Current selection

When you select the hierarchy in the wizard step, typically Categories or Series, the Current Selection dialog box is displayed.

First, you need to select one of these options:

  • Element selection: Select multiple elements from a hierarchy. You can select elements from several levels of the hierarchy.
  • Children of: Select the children of a single, consolidated element.
  • Level: Select one of these levels to display:
    • Entire: By default, the entire level is selected.
    • Filter: You can filter a specific level of an element in the hierarchy. For example, you can select the Month level and apply filter for 2010. This selection will produce all months of the year 2010.
    • Range: Specify a level and a range between two values. For example, you can select the Month level and specify the range from January 2010 to December 2012.

After you select one of these options, you can select the element from the Select Element dialog box, or search for elements using the filters.

Note: By default the title of the dialog is Select Element, but a different title may be specified by the content designer.

You can also change the hierarchies that are selected for categories or series, respectively.

To add or change a hierarchy, click the plus (+) icon. To remove the hierarchy, click the trash icon.
