Adding a measure

Adding measures to a visualization can be done from the properties panel.

You open the properties panel for a visualization by clicking @Edit in the toolbar and clicking the visualization that you want to edit.

If the properties panel is hidden, click h in the lower right-hand corner to open it.

Information noteIf the visualization has é in the upper right-hand corner, the visualization is linked to a master item. You cannot edit a linked visualization, but you can edit the master item. You can also unlink the visualization to make it editable.

Adding a measure from master items

Do the following:

  1. In the properties panel, click Measures tab.

    The Measures tab is expanded.

  2. Click Add measure.

    An empty placeholder for the new measure is added.

  3. Start typing in the text box.

    A list of matching measures is displayed.

    Information noteIf no measure is displayed, you need to create one. You can enter an expression directly in the text box, or you can click 3 to create a measure in the expression editor.
  4. Select the measure that you want to use.

The measure is added to the visualization and the new measure's settings are shown in the properties panel.
