Use the Selector dialog box to choose the dimension values that you want displayed in a query. You can select specific values for a dimension, save a custom selection of dimension values, and work with custom measures. You can also customize the Selector for the query.
The Selector dialog box is the first of several interrelated dialog boxes that make up the Selector.
Toolbar -- Contains buttons that represent the Selector tools available for the selected dimension. Each tool displays a dialog box that helps you select dimension values. To display a Selector tool, click the tool's button.
If you do not see one of the Selector tools, then choose Options, then select the tool from the Available tools list. This makes the tool available.
Dimensions option buttons -- Lists the dimensions for the measures that were selected for the query. Depending on the number of dimensions and on a Selector option setting, each dimension may be displayed as an option button, or the list of dimensions may appear in a list box. Select the dimension whose selection you want to change.
Dimension Selection Values box -- Lists the dimension values currently selected for the dimension. This box appears only when the Show Selection Values check box is selected in the Selector Options dialog box.
Dimension Selection Script box -- Displays the complete script that describes the selections for the dimension. This box appears only when the Show Selection Script box is selected in the Selector Options dialog box.
Custom button -- Displays the Custom Measures dialog box, which allows you to create, copy, edit, and delete custom measures. This button appears only when the Allow custom measure functionality check box is selected in the Selector Options dialog box.
Library button -- Displays the Selection Library dialog box, which allows you to create, rename, and delete saved selections. This button appears when only the Allow access to saved selection library check box is selected in the Selector Options dialog box.
Options button -- Displays the Selector Options dialog box, which allows you to set preferences for the appearance of the Selector dialog box for the current query.
