Chart Click-Through

Most charts allow you to click through on a chart segment/slice/bar and view a list of assets represented by that part of the chart. See Selecting a Table View for more about table views.

Clicking a chart segment opens the Asset Table using the view associated with that segment, instead of a generic default view.

  • For the Pivot Chart, all configured dimension fields are added, and measure fields are added only when the user clicks a chart element associated with that measure.
  • For the Query Comparison Chart and Query Timeline Chart charts, each segment resolves to its originating query view independently.
  • For the Query Intersection Chart and Matrix Data Chart (Stacked) charts, the base query view is combined with the view for the specific intersecting query in the clicked segment.
  • For the Query Intersection, Matrix Data, and Query Timeline charts, the asset table opens with the Refine Data of the base query and of the clicked query. When both queries refine the same column, the Refine Data of the base query applies. A click on the chart preview in the Chart Wizard works the same way.
  • For a chart that groups by a field of a related asset, the asset table opens with the base query, a relationship condition for the clicked value, and the relationship column. See Using Fields of Related Assets in Charts.
  • For the Adapter Segmentation Chart, click-through uses the resolved base view.
  • Fields configured on inline (unsaved) queries are appended to the view for the click-through session; duplicate fields are not added again.
  • When a chart uses a saved query, the query's saved view is maintained, if one is defined.
  • For a Field Segmentation Chart with Show only the clicked value in the results enabled, the segmented column of the results table lists only the clicked value. See Showing Only the Clicked Value in the Results.
