How to change my widget breakdown with a viewer license (could not go to edit setting) ?

[Victor88]

Hello,

Is there a way to change my widget breakdown with a viewer license (could not go to edit setting) ? 

I mean I have 1 widget broken down by Client Segment (see below)

And I want to be able to switch "Client segment" into "Length of Rental segment" without going to edit setting of the widget and with a viewer license.

Thanks for your help.

Hi @Victor88 

You could do this with Blox (however i found it a bit difficult) :

or

We are using Advanced Dim / Measure switcher. A plugin by @Paldit . Works like a charm and is easy to set up 🙂

Hello @Victor88 ,

You can also try dimension switcher plugin by Sisense : https://community-old.sisense.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/221224828-Switchable-Dimensions

Use panel: 'break by' to switch breakdown field

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello @Harry ,

Thank you for your reply.

I installed "Switchable Dimensions" addon and it works perfectly.

But I have one last question: 🙂

When I click on "LOR Segment" in the picture below, nothing happens if I don't manually click on refresh. Is there a way to refresh automatically after switching field ? 

Thanks both for your help @HamzaJ

Thanks for the recommendation @HamzaJ , always a pleasure to help (: 

Hi @Victor88 

Nice to meet you, I'm Ravid from Paldi Solutions - the developer behind the premium Advanced Dim Switcher plugin that Hamza had recommended. 

Few helpful notes about the alternatives mentioned above:

Switchable Dimensions Plugin

Per the question you've asked - you are not supposed to refresh the page after changing a dimension.

The plugin that Harry had suggested had become a FREE officially supported plugin in the Sisense marketplace a while ago so you have downloaded it from the old community link - it might be an older version and that is why you are experiencing this issue.

Try to download the latest version of the plugin from its marketplace page and see if it resolved the problem. 

If it's still reproduced then there are various reasons that can cause this to happen. Feel free to reach out and we'll try to assist further. 

Also, once you use the officially supported plugin from the marketplace - you can open a bug to Sisense about it and use their support as an alternative. 

Note that from our experience, many times users don't realize that this option is available to them as they hardly do a right-click on a chart so if you are going with a free alternative - I would recommend using BloX with the 2nd link that Hamza had provided you. 

Advanced Dim Switcher

As Hamza indicated, we have developed a truly amazing plugin that helps you add easy-to-use dropdowns and other UI elements on top of your widget without the need of using widget scripts or any other means of code. I'm attaching an image for you to see what it looks like.

I hope it helped, feel free to reach out of you have further questions (:
