Insert Filter Control dialog

This dialog is displayed when you drag Filter Control from Toolbox in the Resources panel to the dashboard body. It helps you to insert a filter control into the dashboard body to filter component data. See the dialog.

Title

Specifies a title for the filter control.

Select Fields

Specifies the fields to bind to the filter control. All the selected fields should be of the same data type. All uncomparable data type fields cannot be bound to filter controls, such as Binary, Blob, Clob, Longvarchar, Longvarbinary, and Varbinary.

The common usage is to select one field, and then based on the field to filter the data of the components created from the same data source as the field.

To filter components using different data sources, choose a common field all the data sources contain and select the field in all the data sources.

Apply To

Specifies the data components from the drop-down list to apply the filter control to. <All> means all data components involving the selected fields in the dashboard.

OK

Closes this dialog and inserts the filter control in the dashboard body.
