Multi-select Selector

kpelzer29

I am creating a dashboard using BIRT Designer Professional. Is it possible to create a multi-select selector? I was able to display a parameter as a new selector, but I am only able to select one item from the list at a time. The report parameter is a multi-select parameter.

When you say you are creating a dashboard using BIRT Designer Pro, do you mean you are creating a report that will act like a dashboard or are you creating a report to be used with the BIRT 360 Dashboard capabilities of the iServer?

Short answer, yes. Long answer, yes, but it will require a bit of custom coding using a 3rd party widget. Cascading parameters in the 360 Dashboard show up as seperate windows that are linked together, but you can build a "tree view" widget using something like GWT, and with some scripting, find the report viewers and update them manually.

Hi rmurphy, 
 
I have already created a report and I have added the report to a dashboard on the iServer. I have not been able to find a setting to make the selector allow the user to select multiple items from the List control.

You should be able to select multiple items in the list by holding the CTRL button while clicking.

Hi johnw, 
 
Do I need to use cascading parameters if I only need one selector that allows the user to select multiple items from the List control?

Sorry, misunderstood the question. I thought you were asking about a cascading parameter. follow robs suggestions, the universal Ctrl or Shift key while clicking will do the trick.
