To configure an object and enable it to set filters, specify the name of the filter to set and the value to apply to each object.
Table 5. Format for Object Names
| Format | Object Name |
|---|---|
| <Filter_Name>^qiqcbx | check box |
| <Filter_Name>^qiqrbt | option button |
| <Filter_Name>^qiqtxb | text box |
| <Filter_Name>^qiqdrp<suffix>^showname^a^showignore | drop-down list |
| <Filter_Name>^qiqlbx<suffix>^showname^a^showignore | list |
For example, to configure a check box so that it points to the Quarter filter, precede the object name with Quarter^qiqcbx.
For unique names, Interactive Reporting Studio adds numbers to the check box, drop-down list, option button, list, and text box names when these objects are copied and pasted. The numbers are ignored by Dashboard Studio.
Quick Filters objects can be copied to any frame, even those without sample Quick Filters objects.
