Using Tuple Filters in Linked Analysis

You have two tables you want to align with each other. Filtering in one of the widgets causes filtering in the other widget as well.

Prerequisites

Linked analysis enables you to align two widgets with the same data model. The key needs to be the same to make the synchronization possible.

Procedure

  1. Select one of the table widgets. Your selection will be the driver for the linked analysis.
  2. From the (More Actions) menu select (Linked Analysis).

    The Linked Analysis panel is displayed.
