Selections in distribution plots
When you analyze your data, you have different ways of making selections. In a distribution plot you can use click selection, lasso selection, range selection, and label selection. To confirm a selection, click m or click outside the visualization. You can also press Enter. To cancel, click E or press Esc.
Click selection
You can select lines by clicking them, one at a time. To deselect a box, click it.
Lasso selection
In lasso selection, you can draw a freehand shape to enclose an area. You must close the area by returning to the starting point of your selection. When you want to make a draw selection, you must first click inside the visualization and turn on lasso selection by clicking — at the top of the visualization. On a computer, you can also press Shift and make the selection.
Range selection
In range selection, you can make selections either on the x-axis or the y-axis, one at a time. Select a starting point along the axis, just outside the chart area, and drag to make a selection. As soon as you start dragging, a starting point line is displayed, as well as an end point line that shows the selection. You can adjust your selection by dragging the lines, the value boxes, or the green selection area. For an axis showing measure values, you are also able to click on the range bubble to enter a specific numeric value.
Label selection
You can click the dimension labels to make selections, one at a time.
