Different unrelated metrics in one listbox

[#1]

can i put a no. of unrelated metrics in one list box? EX: If i make a list box, whose title is select metric and the values in the listbox should be different unrelated metrics like No. of history books, no. of geography books etc. and when i select one of these metric so my graphs should show the data for the selected metric.

How can i do this??

Hey,

I think you should make a new field wich contains the list of metrics.

Then you should make a variable or a calculated dimension with something like:

if(new_field='No of history books',field_history_books,

if(new_field='No of geograpy books',field_geograpy_books

))

can a multibox serve my purpose too?

That should be possible as well. You could use the same new_field in a multibox instead of a listbox.

If you want to be able to select for instance both history_books and geograpy_books at the same time things get more complicated.

Maybe you could upload a qvw with (fake) data?
