Hi All,
I am using heat map with x axis as regions and y axis as product levels.Dimensional package with sales as measure.

I see a drill through definiton property available in heat map data container.

How would I achieve a drill thrrough here say if i click on the cell of say region east and product A intersection?
is it similar to normal drill through in other controls. pass both  region and product values?

Normal drill down works when enabled the  drill down  behaviour

Thanks,
Nithya

Oh, tut tut. You know better than this, Nithya! :) You already read the Forum Etiquette post, but in case you've forgotten, here it is - look again at Point 4:

http://www.cognoise.com/index.php/topic,24030.0.html

The thread where you asked this question originally is alive and well in the Active Reports section (where it belongs, since this is an Active Report you are writing) and you have a complete answer in there, so why double-post here?

For anyone else interested, the question is asked and answered here:

I'm closing this thread now. Please don't double-post. If someone else had come along and seen this without knowing about your other thread, they could have spent hours figuring out a solution when you already have your answer. You know better - please don't do it again.

Hi MFGF,

this is not the same as that one asked in active report.

Active report doesnt take care of security, but cognos workspace or report studio does.

And as of I know from 10.2.1 we can use visualization control in report studio and cognoworkspace.

So i assume drill down will automatically work in heat map when run in report studio and workspace.
So is the drill through still applicable , say I have region and product intersection and I pass this to a list report showing other related details.

Sorry for the confusion and not being clear.

Thanks,
Nithya

So the question is whether drill-through is available? Yes - just select the data container of the heatmap and you will see the Drill Through Definitions property. Set it up just like any other report object drill-through.
