Interactivity

This topic describes features that enable interaction between the Grid 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 about filtering concepts common to all dashboard items, see the Master Filtering topic.

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

To reset filtering, use the Clear Master Filter button (the DataShaping_Interactivity_ClearSelection icon) in the Grid's caption area, or the Clear Master Filter command in the Grid's 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.

The Grid dashboard item supports drill-down for rows.

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