H- Per your comments on usability (drill-down order in same report, etc) I'll definitely pass those along to the team- I'd recommend you also add a feature request! Votes on community-made feature requests have real influence in how they prioritize their time :)
Regarding the ability to select custom variables in the left-nav with other metadata, you can! In left-nav, click on "visitors". It will be the very last item in the expanded list. From there you can drill-down from Custom Variable names to specific values by clicking on them (much the way you can drill-down with events by clicking on category/action/label) Brill, alas! But best of luck with Flurry :) -Alex On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 5:01 PM, H <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Alex, thanks for the comments.
