Labels and Measures

Here is where you are able to edit and format the label of the measure, heading and context labels within your end-user-view. You may wish to rename the measure you are using by typing in the text box. This will alias the measure used in the DrillDownTree view.
Beyond the default name, it is possible to set individual Aliases for each measure. Enable this option in the labels tab and configure the Aliases as desired.
Edit the text color of your headers, labels and measure values. It may be important to show clearly the measure value under each node, so formatting the color will help with that. It’s also possible to change the text size of the label and the measure.
Show the percentage of the measure within the particular node. It’s a clear way of showing how of the measure is represented per node. Turning this off the bar within the node represents the % of the node, but the label in the context below will disappear.
If you wish to have a quick overview, deselect the ‘Show measure value’ button. It may or may not be important to show the exact values in your view, all depending on your use case.
Decide how you wish to show your values such as K for thousands and M for Millions, for a clearer view in your viz. Add a prefix of a suffix to using a currency for example.
You can now decide which percentage is most important to be shown in your viz, if you can’t decide which one – show both! By default the % of the group total will be shown, each node of the dimension will show by % of how much of the value is in each node, through the dimension, adding up to 100%. We’ve now added the ability to show the % of the total value from the start of the tree, as you drill down you will see the % of the total measure through your tree.
After great feedback from our customers we have improved the label sizing for both the label and the measure. The value of the node may be the most important insight from your DrillDownTree, having that more visible at first glance could really enhance your dashboard! These changes can be made in the ‘Label’ section in the extensions configuration screen.
Use the dropdown to decide how many decimal places you wish to be shown within your percentage as well as your measure. Use this for more precise detail.
