Description |
Data
tables |
Lists the data tables available within the document. The names of the data tables in this list are the names that will be shown in the data table selectors, in the legends of visualizations, etc. You cannot have two data tables with identical names in the same analysis. |
Rename... |
Allows you to change the display name of the selected data table. Tip: You can also change the data table name in The Expanded Data Panel. |
Refresh
Data |
Reloads the data from the source, if the source is available. This is a way to refresh the data while analyzing, without having to reload the entire file. See Embedded or Linked Data? for information about what a refresh does with embedded data. You can select to refresh data With Prompt which allows you to edit transformations or import settings before the refresh or Without Prompt which uses the latest settings. Note: If data is linked to source, but you have selected to use Stored data as the Data Loading setting, then that data will not be affected by this refresh. Note: If a data table is loaded on demand or calculated using a data function you need to click OK in the Data Table Properties dialog to actually start the data refresh. |
Delete |
Removes the selected data table from the analysis. Any visualizations that use the deleted data table will become invalid. |
Set
as Default |
Sets the selected data table to be the default data table. The default data table is used when new visualizations are created, unless the Data panel is opened, in which case the data table selected in the Data panel is used. You can always change the data table to use in a specific visualization from the Data page in Visualization Properties or from the Data table selector in the legend. |
Source |
Displays information about the origin of the data table together with any transformations or other modifications that have been applied to the original source data. If the source is a file, then the file name and path are shown. For an information link, the source origin shown is the name of the information link, and for a database, it is the data source name given when adding the data table. |
Copy
to Clipboard |
Copies the information under Source so that you can paste it in another application. |
