Multi dimension charts

Dimensions and measures

Multi dimension charts can have a mix of dimensions and measures depending on the chart type.

See Tile types for more information and the types of charts available.

As you select a chart type, the tile editor will display the appropriate number of dimensions and measures, this also works the other way to filter the charts available depending on what you select.
