Drill down a treemap from a higher category to sub-category? (treemap w/ two different categories)

Hello, I currently have a treemap with data categorized by sector (e.g. finance), and this data is then drilled down to a sub-sector level under 'details' (e.g. credit intermediary). However, I would like to create a treemap where users can toggle between data categorized by sector, or by sub-sector-- ideally, if a user were to click on the 'finance' sector, the treemap will then show the ranking categorized by subsector only in the finance sector. OR a toggle button where the treemap is categorized by sector or sub-sector (not together, i find this hard to read). i hope i was being clear, thanks for your help.

Hi @jscivias 

 

If I understand it correctly, the new Field Parameter feature is probably what you want. Fields in the same parameter are at the equivalent level.
