For this you need to query the selections from your selection-field quite similar to above mentioned but instead of getcurrentselections you would use getfieldselections. But this would only work for selections which are made one after another - if the user makes multiple selections by draging several values with mouse or pressing the ctrl-key to get the selection-order would fail.

As alternatively you could build fix selection-structures with a field or variable for each dimension but I doubt that will be a real option for you.

Hi,

1. It is really astonishing that you are using 400 + dimensions in your report.

2. Order the objects by demote and promote option ans save it.

Hope this will help you. Thank You.
