Changing the filtering scheme to use on a page

If you want to change the filtering scheme for a certain page in the analysis, you can do this from the menu at the top of the Filters panel. If the Filering scheme menu is hidden in the Filters panel, you can toggle the visibility of it from the Filtering schemes panel.

Before you begin

You must be an author with the Advanced Filter Panel Properties license feature. You can only use the Filtering schemes panel when in Editing mode.

About this task

See also Filtering schemes for general information.

Procedure

  1. Make sure the Filtering schemes menu is visible at the top of the Filters panel.
    If it is hidden, select View > Filtering schemes and click on the icon Show filtering scheme menu in the Filters panel . Click the icon again to hide the menu.


    You must show the filtering scheme menu if you want to change the filtering scheme used on a page. However, when sending the finished document to a coworker for further analysis, you might want to hide the menu to save space in the filters panel and to reduce the risk of changing the filtering schemes by mistake.

    Tip: Instead of changing the filtering for an entire page, you can use a different filtering scheme to limit a specific visualization from the Data limiting settings in the visualization properties.
  2. In the Filters panel, select the desired filtering scheme.


    Depending on what your filtering schemes are called, you might see different names in the list.
