Selector
1. Overview
The "Selector" component allows users to apply filters on the screen in a customized way. It offers various selection options, such as single selection, multiple selection, vertical, horizontal, and date selection. This component is ideal for creating dynamic filters that enable each user to personalize the data visualization according to their needs.
2. How to Configure
To configure the selector component, follow the steps below:
Drag to Screen: Drag the selector component to the screen where you want to apply the filter.
Select the Table: Choose the table that will be used to populate the selector options.
Choose the Selector Type: Select the type of selector you want to use. The options include:
Single Selection: Allows selecting only one option.
Multiple Selection: Allows selecting multiple options.
Vertical: Displays options in a vertical list.
Horizontal: Displays options in a horizontal list.
Date Selection: Allows selecting a specific date or a date range, offering a date range filter where the user can define a start and end date.
3. Component Personalization
Personalize the component’s properties:
Limit Items by Screen Filter: The selector component filters its options based on the criteria of the filters saved on the screen. It is worth noting that this filtering is exclusive to the specific selector and does not affect other selectors on the screen.
Show Title: Toggles the display of the selector title on or off.
Limit Records: If you want the selector options to be filtered, use this option.
Manual Reactivity: If your selector should affect an SQL component but isn’t doing so, it is because no table is linked to the SQL View. This is not an issue, as you can configure manual reactivity on the selector, ensuring it updates a specific component whenever it is modified.
