MultiColumns

MultiColumns are primary dimensions (columns with blue headings), that can be switched with a secondary dimension or a Dive Dimension (columns with yellow headings). MultiColumns can be removed using the context menu and then appear as Dive Dimensions. Also, Dive Dimensions can be added as MultiColumns.

There are no limits on the number of Dive Dimensions or MultiColumns in use, and when editing dimensions any dimension can be used as a MultiColumn.

Here is an example of a data page with MultiColumns and Dive Dimensions.

The primary dimension is the first column on the left, and the other columns with blue headings are secondary dimensions.

Here are examples of the context menus for the primary and secondary dimensions.

The primary dimension has the context-menu option to switch with another dimension or Dive Dimension. All other dimensions have the option to Remove MultiColumn, changing it from a dimension to a Dive Dimension.

NOTE: You view context menus for one column at a time.

Here is an example of the context menu for a Dive Dimension.

The context menu for Dive Dimensions gives the option to add the Dive Dimension as a MultiColumn, making it a dimension.

NOTE: Typically if a Dive Dimension is not present, MultiColumns are not in use.

Here is the resulting page after Corporate Brand is added as a MultiColumn.
