how can I view only the entity description in a label?

Adriana Mitillo

I need a label with only the name and the description of a particular entity without any related block value. How can I do?

 

Thank you!

Hi,

 

Let's call your entity MyEntity.

1. You can configure a Layout (right-click on the label object).
   1. In the Layout, choose the 3rd option "Entities & Relationships". There you can select MyEntity that you want to display.
   2. MyEntity must also be set by row in the "Axes" tab.
   3. you need to create a block with a cube. This cube must be structured by entities which are either MyEntity or a more detailed entity than MyEntity from the same tree.

      

2. an other solution: Make a screen select on MyEntity for the member you want to display and use the substitution formula in the Label description. This is less flexible because you may need to display something without restricting the data scope caused by the screen select

Hi Adriana Mitillo,

 

additionally to what interested typ explained, you might want to try "selection_ex" (described here Substitution formulas ).

 

Kind regards,

Helmut
