Hello!
I've got a client who wants to be able to click into a row of a read only straight table chart and open a new tab showing information about that item.
It must NOT filter the data for that item, only show information about that item in another tab.
I'll try to explain in detail:
There is a read only straight table showing a list of customers and the client emphatically states that the data must not be filtered by a specific customer.
Now the client wants to be able to click on an item of that table and be sent to another tab where detailed information about that customer must be shown (Full name and address, amount purchased, debt...)
In another tab where there were just a few elements on the list I was able to do so using several text objects (instead of a table) with actions on clicking them, but now the client wants to select them from a chart table.
I thought of creating a button to turn the chart to "not read only" and then the user could select the item and click another button that would clear the customer field and go to another tab... but it implies that the user must click three times instead of one and must use it in an awkward way ("open, select, go" instead of just "click" on the customer) and if the user changes to another tab without clicking on the second button, the information shown would be filtered by the selected customer; since this qvw has a lot of users and they are quite strict in the way they want interact with the application, this method has been discarded by the client.
I would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks in advance.
Add {1} to all the expressions in the straight table. Sum(Amount) becomes Sum({1} Amount). This will prevent the straight table from filtering the data in the chart.
