Interactivity

This topic describes features that enable interaction between the Card and other dashboard items. These features include Master Filtering and Drill-Down.

Master Filtering

The Dashboard allows you to use any data aware dashboard item as a filter for other dashboard items (Master Filter). To learn more, see the Master Filtering topic, which describes filtering concepts common to all dashboard items.

When Master Filtering is enabled, you can click a card (or multiple cards by holding down the CTRL key) to make other dashboard items only display data related to the selected card(s).

To reset filtering, use the Clear Master Filter button (the DataShaping_Interactivity_ClearSelection icon) in the caption area of the Card dashboard item, or the Clear Master Filter command in the context menu.

Drill-Down

The built-in drill-down capability allows you to change the detail level of data displayed in dashboard items on the fly. To learn more, see Drill-Down.

When drill-down is enabled, you can click a card to view the details.
