Make Cyclic Group searchable

Fri, 15 May 2015 10:05:29 GMT

Hello,

Is there any way you can add Search icon to a Cyclic Group in a Straight Table? It seems that 'Searchable' checkbox is only available for dimensions or expressions in Straight Table whereas for Cyclic Group this is not supported.

I tried to add a Search Object for a Cyclic Group and put it above the according column in the table but it doesn't look good from user's perspective. Please advise.

You can use Cyclic Group in a listbox to facilitate Search outside your chart

Yes, and I have a List Box that filters Cyclic Group values in the chart. But the problem is that my client wants to have a search icon next to Cyclic Group column in the chart itself - similar to how it works in Straight Table when 'Searchable' checkbox is selected.

It would seem that Searchable option is only available to Expressions. I believe it is by Design.

you can however, add expressions to your Listbox making it function similar to a straight table

Searching is also available on Drop-Down option.

just does not looks like it, but searching is possible, click on dropdown arrow and type in your search string

Thanks for all your advice. I'll go with Search object as I described in the original post and see how it goes.

Good luck, your clients may not be very happy about it, but they'll learn to live it.
