Cell-based detach

Hi,

Do you know if it is possible to detach/attach specific cells of a pivot or straight table?

For example, let's say we have a pivot with rows the products and columns the months. Values are sales.

ProductJanFebMarAprTotal
Product A100504010200
Product B5010000150
Product C1001006020280
Product D30303030120
Product E40304030140
Product F50505060210

Could I select ad hoc to freeze (=detach) the values of Product C and D for months Feb and Mar (having of course the ability to change the selection)?

Thanking you in advance,

Greg

There is no possibility to freeze some cells but you can somehow control with expressions.

Something like

Sum({<Product={'Product C', 'Product D'}, Month={'Feb', 'Mar'}>+$} Sales)

Thank you,

I can definetely can use set analysis but it would not be "ad hoc".

However, I agree that I can somehow threat this as such. If I do this, do you know how I could dynamically highlight differently the cells that are frozen?

Thanking you again,

Greg

You can set background color for expression like

If(Match(Product, 'Product C', 'Product D') AND Match(Month, 'Feb', 'Mar'), Blue(55), White())
