NxMeasureInfo

Layout for NxInlineMeasureDef.

Properties

Name Description Type
qFallbackTitle

Corresponds to the label of the measure. If the label is not defined then the measure name is used.

String
qApprMaxGlyphCount

Length of the longest value in the field.

Integer
qCardinal

Number of distinct field values.

Integer
qSortIndicator

Sort indicator. The default value is no sorting. This parameter is optional.

One of:

  • N or NX_SORT_INDICATE_NONE
  • A or NX_SORT_INDICATE_ASC
  • D or NX_SORT_INDICATE_DESC
String
qNumFormat

Sets the formatting of a field. The properties of qFieldAttributes and the formatting mechanism are described below.

Formatting mechanism

The formatting mechanism depends on the type set in qType, as shown below:

Information note

In case of inconsistencies between the type and the format pattern, the format pattern takes precedence over the type.

Type is DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP or INTERVAL

The following applies:

  • If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the formatting is as defined in qFmt .
  • If qFmt is empty, the formatting is defined by the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( TimeFormat , DateFormat , TimeStampFormat ).
  • The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.

Type is INTEGER

The following applies:

  • If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the formatting mechanism uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , no formatting is applied. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou and the number interpretation variables defined in the script are not used .

Type is REAL

The following applies:

  • If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if the value is almost an integer value (for example, 14,000012), the value is formatted as an integer. The properties qDec , qThou , qnDec , qUseThou are not used.
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is defined and not 0, the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , and if qnDec is 0, the number of decimals is 14 and the property qDec is used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.

Type is FIX

The following applies:

  • If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( DecimalSep and ThousandSep ).
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the properties qDec and qnDec are used. If qDec is not defined, the variable DecimalSep defined at the top of the script is used.

Type is MONEY

The following applies:

  • If a format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine looks at the values set in qDec and qThou . If these properties are not defined, the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of any script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).
  • If no format pattern is defined in qFmt , the engine uses the number interpretation variables included at the top of the script ( MoneyDecimalSep and MoneyThousandSep ).

Type is ASCII

No formatting, qFmt is ignored.

FieldAttributes
qMin

Lowest value in the range.

Number (double)
qMax

Highest value in the range.

Number (double)
qError NxValidationError
qReverseSort

If set to true, it inverts the sort criteria in the field.

Boolean
qIsAutoFormat

This parameter is set to true if qNumFormat is set to U (unknown). The engine guesses the type of the field based on the field's expression.

Boolean
qAttrExprInfo

List of attribute expressions.

Array of NxAttrExprInfo
qAttrDimInfo

List of attribute dimensions.

Array of NxAttrDimInfo
qCalcCondMsg

The message displayed if calculation condition is not fulfilled.

String
qLibraryId

Refers to a dimension stored in the library.

String
qTrendLines

Calculated trendlines

Array of NxTrendline
qMiniChart NxMiniChart
