Calculated values are values derived from some kind of aggregated expression, similar to the data shown in cross tables. They can be displayed in the context of a graphical table or, separately, in a text area.

Calculated values can be set up to change with filtering like any traditional Spotfire visualization or they can be locked to show fixed values, using the Data page in the Calculated Value Settings dialog.
