You can create a defined hierarchy directly from the columns on an
	 axis in a visualization, for reuse in other visualizations or to obtain a
	 hierarchy filter. 
  
 
	 Procedure
-  
		   On the axis, select the columns to form the hierarchy and 
			 place them in the wanted order. 
		   
		  
 
			 Note: If the number of columns added to an axis exceeds three, the
				name of each column will no longer be displayed. Instead the number of added
				columns is shown. 
			 
 
		    
		 -  
		  Right-click one of the column selectors, and select 
			 Create hierarchy. 
		   
		  
 The separate column selectors are replaced by a single
			 selector showing the hierarchy. The selector is supplemented with a slider,
			 which allows you to switch between the levels of the hierarchy. 
			 
 
			 
 
			 Tip: If you want, you can give the created hierarchy a
				name.
