Dimension or Indicator

Hi all,

In some App-Object you have to choose first if you want to put a dimension or an indicator. Two questions on that:

1) How can I quickly see if an object is a dimension or an indicator? In the User-GUI as well in the edit-analyse-mode?

2) Is it possible to quickly change a dimension in an indicator and vice versa? currecty I delete the object and insert a new one (not so nice)

Thank you.

Very basically

If you can select it : it is a dimension (eg : product, customer, date)

If you can't (it is a number, an agregation...) : it is an indicator (ex: sales, max date, average discount)

And in the the edit-analyse-mode? And what about point 2?
