XamPivotGrid row/column header captions
posted

Hi, I've been recently playing with the online samples and have a couple of questions relating to the row/column headers. From the XAML for flatdatasource, even though display names are defined for the field (dimensionMetadata), for example, "Units sold" for NumberOfUnits, when drag/dropping the field from the Dataselector to any area within the datacollector window or the pivot grid window, the SourcePropertyName "NumberOfUnits" is displayed instead. Is it by design? If yes, how can we customize it so that displaynames are displayed?

<igOlap:CubeMetadata DataTypeFullName="Infragistics.Web.SampleBrowser.SilverlightDV.Samples.PivotGrid.Sale"
                     DisplayName="Sales Data">
     <igOlap:DimensionMetadata SourcePropertyName="NumberOfUnits"
                               DisplayName="Units sold"/>
      <igOlap:DimensionMetadata SourcePropertyName="AmountOfSale"
                                DisplayName="Amount of sale"
                                DisplayFormat="{}{0:C2}"/>
</igOlap:CubeMetadata>

    Hi

     

    You can mention that this property exists like measure and like dimension. When you drag drop dimensions really you drag drop hierarchy from that dimension. So the name displayed into data selector is name of hierarchy. To define hierarchy you should use HierarchyDiscriptor. You can read more about hierarchy here
