Items in a selector are the elements, metrics, metric values, or panels that are listed in the selector. The user selects an item to change a panel in a panel stack, data displayed in a Grid/Graph, or the choices displayed in another selector. If the style of the selector is one of those listed below, the user can be allowed to choose more than one item in the selector:
Slider (except for metric condition sliders)
Listbox
Link Bar
Button Bar
Check Boxes
Use the Allow multiple selections option to determine whether users can select more than one item in a selector. For all other styles, this option is unavailable, since those styles do not support multiple selections.
This procedure assumes you have added a selector to the document. For instructions, see Adding a selector to a document.
Open the document in Design or Editable Mode.
Right-click the selector to modify and select Properties and Formatting. The Properties and Formatting dialog box opens.
From the left, choose Selector.
Do one of the following:
Note: By default, the Allow
multiple selections check box is cleared for the Slider,
Listbox, Link Bar, and Button Bar styles. For all other styles, this check
box is unavailable and the option is disabled, since those styles do not
support multiple selections. The one exception is Check Boxes, where the
option is always enabled and you cannot change it.
To allow the user to choose multiple items in the selector, select the Allow multiple selections check box.
To disable choosing multiple items in the selector, clear the Allow multiple selections check box.
Click OK to apply the changes.
