<strong>Dashboards</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Widgets</strong> <strong>Creation</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> Providing Flash Analysis <strong>and</strong> Interactivity: <strong>Widgets</strong> 5<br />

Select the target in the Available Targets list, <strong>and</strong> click the Add to<br />

selections arrow to move it to the Selected Targets list.<br />

To set a default selector style for non-Flash modes/views<br />

11 From the list on the left, click Layout.<br />

12 In Flash Mode in <strong>MicroStrategy</strong> Web, the Date Selection widget is<br />

viewable as designed above. In non-Flash modes, the Date Selection<br />

widget is displayed by default as a Listbox style selector. To change the<br />

default selector style (for non-Flash Mode display), select a different<br />

DHTML style.<br />

13 For Slider, Radio Buttons, Check Boxes, <strong>and</strong> Button Bar selector styles,<br />

you can use the Orientation option to display the selector horizontally<br />

(on a single line from left to right) or vertically (in a single column).<br />

14 The user must select an item in a selector to change the target of the<br />

selector. For the List Box selector style, you can allow a user to select an<br />

item by hovering the cursor over it, without clicking, if you select the<br />

Change selection on mouseover check box. If the user points the<br />

cursor away from the selector without clicking an item, the target reverts<br />

to its previous state.<br />

The mouseover option is applied only in Flash Mode.<br />

To allow multiple selections <strong>and</strong> define the All option for users<br />

15 By default, users can only select one item from the following selector<br />

styles: Slider, Listbox, Link Bar, <strong>and</strong> Button Bar. To allow users to make<br />

multiple selections for these selector styles, select the Allow multiple<br />

selections check box. This check box is cleared by default. This option is<br />

unavailable for other selector styles (except for Check Boxes) because<br />

those styles do not support multiple selections.<br />

16 From the list on the left, click Selector.<br />

17 By default, the user can display all attribute elements in the target at one<br />

time, by selecting the All option. To disable the All option, clear the Show<br />

option for All check box.<br />

The Show option for All check box is not available if the DHTML style is<br />

set to Slider <strong>and</strong> the Allow multiple selections check box is selected.<br />

18 By default, the All option is labeled (All) in the selector. You can rename<br />

the All option by typing text into the Alias for All field. You can rename<br />

the All option only if the Show option for All check box is selected above.<br />
