Charts work similarly, where clicking on a bar or pie slice, members in the legend,
or the members along the bottom axis cause a pop-up menu to appear. This means
that PAS does not allow users to simply click on a bar to drill down; the user must
click on the bar and then choose an action from the pop-up menu.
One of the great features in the Professional client is the ability to click the View
button and cycle through the four base views: chart only, grid only, horizontal split,
and vertical split. There is no View button in the Standard client but clicking on
the View tab shows three of these options as buttons: Grid only, Grid and Chart,
and Chart only. The Grid and Chart button shows a horizontal split. Also, the View
tab includes buttons to change the type of chart, including bar, line, pie, and more.
Figure 6-58 shows these options on the View menu, as well as the same grid from
Figure 6-57 but now displayed as both a grid and chart.
Figure 6-58 also shows that there are options on the View tab for adding or
removing totals, including grand totals and subtotals on both the rows and columns.
A Total Options button allows users to more finely tune the totals, just as they could
do in the Professional client. Finally, options exist to flatten row and column headers
so that the children are not indented in relation to the parent.
The Sort and Filter tab expose the same functionality as in the Professional client,
with the caveat that the ability to hide empty rows and empty columns is found only
on the Filter tab.
