Fields for defining custom filter conditions

Element Description
Measure Allows you to select a dataset measure.
Ask at runtime Allows you to set, on the measure data, a filter on a fixed value or a value obtained from the definition of a custom parameter when the form is run (see Parameters).
Parameter Only visible with Ask at runtime selected. Shows the list of non-dimensional parameters that are compatible with the selected measure and allows you to select one of them to filter the measure data. Note: parameters are compatible when the data type is the same as the measure type (text, number, date), or, for dictionary-type parameters, when the parameter refers to a dictionary belonging to the same Analytical Workspace as the measure and the measure type is text.
Operator Allows you to select the operator to be applied to the filter.
Text box Only visible with Ask at runtime not selected and when the measure type is text or numeric. Allows you to enter the value of the filter.
Date selection box Only visible with Ask at runtime not selected and when the measure type is date. Allows you to select a date for the filter.
