Dimension view menu options

When you right click on a dimension cell and choose option: dimension view, it will let you change the way you look at a dimension:

Taking the cell clicked as a new top cell, you can change the dimension view to:

  • Explorer: This is the default view, open or close each cell as it is clicked.
  • Hierarchy 1 level: Shows the cell clicked plus one level of it's detail. If you click on a cell showing detail, the a drill up is made and it's parent level is shown with one level of detail.
  • Hierarchy 2 levels: It's the same as the option above but with two levels of detail.
  • Full hierarchy: Shows all the fields hierarchy below the clicked dimension member. If you click on the first member in the list, a drill up is made.
  • Only my sons: Shows the first level of detail of the cell clicked, without this cell.
  • Only me: Shows only the dimension member that was clicked.
  • Final nodes: Shows only the final nodes below the cell clicked.

The last option accessed from this menu gets checked.

These options are a shortcut of the Elements Tab in the Dimension options dialog.
