By default, once you choose an item in a selector, the target immediately updates without any additional user interaction. This is called automatic submission, or autosubmit. If you select multiple items, the target is automatically updated after each individual selection, which can take some time. Instead, you can disable autosubmit, allowing you to select items in the selector, then choose when to apply the selections to the target.
Note: For metric condition selectors
that use a qualification, the user must click the check mark to apply the qualification to the target.
For a description of metric condition selectors, see Creating
selectors that filter metric values.
The Autosubmit option is applied to an entire document or dashboard, not to an individual selector. The document level property applies to selectors in a filter panel displayed in other modes. For details on how the filter panel property works, see Controlling how data updates in a filter panel: Automatic apply.
To enable or disable automatic submission for a document or dashboard
Open the document in Design or Editable Mode.
From the Tools menu, select Document Properties. The Properties dialog box opens.
From the left, select Document.
Do one of the following:
To automatically apply selections to the target selector, select the Automatically apply selector changes check box.
To apply selections to the target selector manually, clear the Automatically apply selector changes check box.
Note: If you choose to apply selections
manually, you can choose to apply changes by either selecting Refresh from the Data
menu, or clicking the Apply
icon
in a floating toolbar. Steps to enable the floating toolbar are below.
Click OK to apply the changes.
