Drilling on charts
Drilling down, up, or by on a chart, provides you with a graphical explanation for why
summary results are particularly high or low.
The following section of this guide tells you how to drill on:
• dimensions – by drilling on chart axes
• measures – by drilling on the data bars or markers in the body of the chart
• dimensions – by drilling on the chart legend
Note: You cannot Drill by dimensions on chart axes. However, you can Drill by
dimensions on chart legends (see ”Drilling on axis legends” on page 384).
For information on creating and formatting charts in Web Intelligence reports, see
”Inserting and formatting charts” on page 169.
Drilling on dimensions via chart axes
On 2D charts, you can drill on dimensions via the X-Axis. On 3D charts, you can drill on
dimensions via the X-Axis and the Z-Axis. Charts can contain one or multiple dimensions
on a single axis. When an axis contains multiple dimensions, each possible combination
of the dimension values appear on the axis (this is sometimes referred to as a cartesian
product).
