Getting a value from a Matrix

I think I know the answer (Nope, you can't), but I am compelled to ask anyway.

 

Is there a way to extract a value from a matrix given a column name and row name?

For the purpose of calculations on the subtotals. I figure that I would need to change the Subtotal titles to have unique names.

This matrix does not represent a single table.

Thx

Hi @dthompsonKairos ,

Sorry, your request cannot be met at present. This is a field generated by the matrix visual object itself. You can only modify all subtotals to a certain name at the same time, but you cannot modify a subtotal to a unique name.

I suggest you post your ideas here or search to see if there are others with the same ideas as yours and give them a thumbs up. Maybe your ideas will be adopted and realized one day in the future:

Ya, I figured. Too bad. I'll make the suggestion.

Thx
