Interactivity for the Scatter Chart on the Web

  • 2 minutes to read

To enable interaction between the Scatter Chart and other dashboard items, you can use the interactivity features, as Master Filtering and Drill-Down.

Master Filtering

The Web Dashboard allows you to use a Scatter Chart dashboard item as a filter for other dashboard items. To learn more about filtering concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Master Filtering topic.

The Scatter Chart dashboard item supports filtering by points that correspond to specific argument values or their combinations.

When Master Filtering is enabled, an end-user can click a point (or multiple points) to make other dashboard items only display data related to the selected point(s).

To reset filtering, use the Clear Master Filter button (the wdd-master-filtering-icon icon) in the Scatter Chart’s caption.

Drill-Down

The Drill-Down feature allows end-users to change the detail level of data displayed in dashboard items. To learn more about drill-down concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Drill-Down topic.

When drill-down is enabled, an end-user can click a point to view the details (or double-click a point in case of enabled Master Filtering).

Drill-down requires that the Arguments section contains several dimensions, from the least to the most detailed dimension.

Note

In OLAP mode, you can perform drill-down for either a hierarchy data item or several dimension attributes.

To enable Drill-Down, go to the Scatter Chart’s Interactivity menu and turn the Drill-Down option on.
