Interacting with Reports in the Classic Viewer

Filter, Brush, and Drill in Reports

Depending on the interactions that were defined by the report designer, you might be able to interact with your report in the following ways:
filter
restricts the data that is returned from a query to a data source. Click on data in the source report object to filter data in the target report object (or objects). Clicking on different data applies the filter based on the new data. To clear the selection, right-click, and select Clear Selection.
brush
enables you to show the same data selected simultaneously in two or more tables, graphs, or both. Click on data in the source report object to brush data in the target report object (or objects). To clear the selection, right-click, and select Clear Selection.
enables you to move from summary information to more detailed data. If the data contains hierarchies, you can double-click on the data to drill down the hierarchy into detailed information. When you drill down the hierarchy, breadcrumbs at the top of the report object enable you to drill back up the hierarchy.

View Links in Reports

Report objects can link to other report sections or whole reports. And, they can link to external links. To view a link from a report object, double-click on the report object. If there are multiple links or interactions from a report object, then a list appears that enables you to select a link or interaction. When you are viewing a link, the following buttons are displayed in the top left corner: the back button with link icon, drop-down button.
If a report object that you are linking to shares a data source with the current report object, then the target report object is filtered based on the data value that you double-clicked. If you do not want the target report object to be filtered, you can click the drop-down button, and deselect Apply report link filters. If the data source is not shared between the two report objects, then no additional filtering takes place in the target report object.
To go back to the original report object, click the back button with link icon .
A report object, text, or image can link to an info window within the same report. The info window provides additional information. For example, a list table might provide additional information for a bar chart. Or, there might be additional text about what is displayed in a report object. When you double-click the data (for example, a bar, a bubble, a pie slice, a table row, and so on) in a report object that has an info window link, the info window is displayed as a new window.
