Hi Thomas, the update button runs the SELECT DISTINCT against the
database, so it might take a while. Also, is your dataset URL based or
RDBMS based, the update procedure is perhaps different for the two.
You can change the title of filters (e.g singleselect filters or
multiselect) by changing the display name. However, its not possible for
booleans as far as i know.
Best,
Syed

Hi Syed,
Thanks for the information. It did the trick. However, the "update" button
doesn't work for me, nothing happen when I click on it. I was also wondering whether it
was possible to affect a value different from the label of an item from the dropdown
list. It actually relates to the custom labels for boolean filters, but somewhat
generalized. This would allow for example, to display a nice user-friendly list of items
to the user, but send to the server a more computer-friendly value when an item is
picked-up (e.g. a numerical ID).
Thanks
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
on the filter, right click and see the option 'Drop down list' for the list of
options. UPDATE button would fetch in the SELECT DISTINCT from the database for
this column.
the customised title for boolean filters (only, excluded) is amongst the TODO
part of design, hence not available yet as far as i can tell - you can see
these properties disabled in the property/value panel but these are locked
unfortunately.

Hello,
How can I define the possible values of a filter of type "singleselect" in a regular
access point? The webpage is currently displaying a combobox for this filter, with only one value:
"no data". And the tooltip indicates t hat the filter is not available. I couldn't find
where the potential values should be specified in the documentation. Could you please let me know
how to do it?
On a similar note, is it possible to customize the labels of a boolean filter
(those displayed on the webpage)?
Thanks
Thomas
