Add in "Layout settings" an option for the user to select how to display entity members.
Hello @Product Management Team ,
I would like to share an idea from a customer that could be helpful for dataviews. I don't think I found another article with the same precise request.
Functional requirement and known limitation :
- Let the "User" visualize the entity members "by row" (or "by column") with a different display from the original configuration.
- Current "User Experience" : must make 6 clicks to update the dataview
- → Layout Settings
- → Layout Editor
- → Axes
- → By Row : Member Display mode "Default" → Example : "Code", or "Code and Description"…
- → Repeat on "By Column" if needed
- → Click on "Save"
- Action is repeated for each dataview on screen
My Ideas :
1 - "Add a Icon in the "layout settings"
In one of the 2 bars below from the "Layout Settings" to add a new "Icon" (button) with the possibility for the user to select the display of the entity members of the dataview with the following options. (Drop Down list)
- Member Display Mode :
- Default
- Code
- Description
- Code and Description
2 - "Add a Icon in the "Open Menu"
Another proposal is to add this option on the "Open Menu" bar with a specific Icon next to "My View" ?
This idea is probably more difficult to implement, where the "Member Display Mode" option will be sensitive to all layout (and not only dataviews ?) in the screen.
Current articles :
I found the article below with a similar request, in my case it's not about the layout configuration but to add a "layout settings" a new option to help the user experience visualisation, to let him display more easily the view of dataviews mostly on Reporting screens.
Thank you for reading (and voting 😀)
