Filtering Using Show Only Selection
One of the methods to apply a global filter is to show only the selected range on a chart. If other plotted charts have values dependent on the selected range, such charts are also filtered.
The Show only selection action (in the Creating Filters pane) is grayed out until you select a region in a chart using the Box Select function.
- On the Creating Filters pane, click Show only selection.
If applied, it works in the same manner as described for the Show only selected action in the Measurement Explorer pane.
Notice that the expression for the filter appears under the Global Filters area of the Measurement Explorer, which indicates that the values of sepal_length from 6.2 to 7.625 were selected and that range has been used as a filter across all charts.
- Optionally, you may perform the Hide selection action or apply custom filter to one or more charts. See Filtering Using Hide selection and Applying Custom Filters, respectively.
- At any point, if you use the Clear selection action, it does not remove the filter from the charts.
- To remove the filter, click the
against one or more expressions that are displayed in the Global Filters area.
