example, the slider is set to January 2009 through June 2009, and the grid
report displays the data for that time frame.
To change from using the primary graph as the selector to using the slider,
you must format the settings of the widget in Flash Mode in MicroStrategy
Web. For more information, see the MicroStrategy Web Help.
While the widget in this example targets a Grid/Graph, it could target
multiple Grid/Graphs, a panel stack, or multiple panel stacks instead.
To use a widget as a selector, you first choose the target Grid/Graph and/or
panel stack in Desktop. You can also do this in Design Mode or Editable
Mode in MicroStrategy Web.
In Flash Mode in MicroStrategy Web, you can ensure that target Grid/
Graphs and panel stacks are updated when a user hovers over a data point in
the primary graph, instead of clicking the data point.

widget, page 276. To enable a Time Series Slider widget as a selector, see
Creating the widget used as a selector, page 367.
