Alternate State

[#1]

Hi,

I am using Alternate states to calculate Sum of a Field in two different charts with say AS1 and AS2 Alternate State applied

Eg.:

Dim1	Dim2	Exp-AS1
100	Abc	=20
101	Pqr	=31

Dim1	Dim2	Exp-AS2
100	Hij	=11
101	Mno	=04

Now, I need to calculate difference between the Expression in another Chart which is WHITHOUT alternate state;

Dim1	Exp
100	09
101	27

kindly help with any idea !

Thanks in advance !

Within Set Analysis you can define which Alternate State an expression should use.

So create two expressions against the two States and subtract them

Here the bit from the Help about it :

Comparing Alternate States

You can compare two states on the same object. For example, you can create a line chart to display both states of the data with the same axis by assigning a state in the expression using Set Analysis.

Example:

If you have defined the states Group1 and Group2, you can compare the average of field Adj.Close for the groups by showing these two expressions in a line chart:

Avg({[Group1]} [Adj.Close])

Avg({[Group2]} [Adj.Close])
