Selection Sliders in Graphs and Gauges
A section slider displays members of one or more attribute or hierarchical columns as values on a rectangular bar and provides mechanisms to select a value. You use a section slider to limit the data that is shown in a graph or gauge.
A section slider consists of the following components:
-
Slider bar — Displays the members of one or more attribute or hierarchical columns as values along a rectangular bar.
Note: The administrator configures the maximum number of values that can be displayed on the slider bar. However, you can set a maximum lower than the system maximum by setting the Maximum number of section slider values field in the Section Properties dialog. Slider thumb — Indicates the current value of the section slider. You can drag the thumb to the desired value.
Decrease button — Moves the slider thumb to the value to the left of the current value.
Increase button — Moves the slider thumb to the right of the current value.
Play button — Sequentially moves the thumb through the slider values. After being clicked, the play button changes to a pause button to allow you to stop on a particular value.
