Disabling multiple selections in selectors

Before you begin

You should be familiar with the various properties that define how a selector looks and what it controls, such as target, source, and item. See Defining selectors for descriptions.

Items in a selector are the elements, metrics, or panels that are listed in the selector. The user selects an item to change the target panel, Grid/Graph, or other selector. If the style of the selector is listed below, more than one item can be chosen in the selector:

  • Slider (except for metric condition selectors)

  • Listbox

  • Link Bar

  • Button Bar

  • Check Boxes

The Check Boxes style always allows multiple selections; you cannot disable the setting.

Prerequisite

This procedure assumes you have already created a selector with one of the styles listed above. For instructions, see Inserting selectors into documents.
