Hi everyone,
The Idea :
The list of blocks in the layout should be manage like an entity in the layout editor. These would enable to do report as shown below very easily :
Example of configuration in the layout editor :
These would be especially useful when comparing 2 set of data (like version) in 2 different cube or in the same cube but you are forced to used reference.
Workaround(s) :
There is many workaround like create a cube and an entities which can loaded it using dataflow, a layout + rule with datapicking, even nexel and crossview. Sometimes you can even use "detail by" but if you don't already have a rules.
However to my knowledge, all required more works, create more object therefor more maintenance is the long run and make ad-hoc analysis harder for end-user.
