Selections in tables

You can make selections in a table by clicking or drawing in the dimension columns.

Information note

The Straight table has replaced the Table as the default table visualization. Consider upgrading existing tables to straight tables for improved functionality and performance. For information about the straight table, see Straight table.

Measure values cannot be selected. When you make a selection, it is always the dimension values that you select. You can only make selections in one column at a time.
