Hierarchies- need some help

I have sucessfully created a drill down for heierarchies, which works fine.

but my data is available at each level of the hierarchy 

as such my graph sums, or averages (depending on what is set) all the values for all levels in the hierarchy,

so at the top level i get the sum or average of all the levels in one value

Is there a way to not get it to sum up the levels and just display the values for that one level

thanks john

    It's hard to understand exactly what your issue is - maybe show a screenshot?

      I have a table which contains a value for all my locations.

      each location has a value

      the locations are placed in a hierarchy and i have build a graph that drills down through the different levels

      it works, but it sums or i my case averages the values

      as it is averaging  all the values under the hierarchy structure, it does not give the value for that location

      example

      l1 3.5

      l2a 3

      l2b 3

      l2c 4

       

      the l1 value seem to be the average of all the values rather than 3.5

       

      hope this clarifies

      Note the size o fthe location differ so an average is not really any use

        Hello docjohn

         

        If I'm right, you want to see the numerci value on each level of your hierarchy without aggregation function, that's it?

         

        I guess you cannot do it because drill down chart needs a aggregate value to display the item.

         

        I think, the only way to do this (i.e : display the value belonging to the level) is to use the value concatenat with the level.

         

        If I get you example, it will show :

        Name / Value / New column

        I1 / 3.5 / I1-3.5

        I2a / 3 / I2a-3

        I2b / 3 / I2b - 3

        I2C / 4 / I2c-4

         

        But unfortunately it going to be hard to use the new column as location. Sorry not to find a better solution. Hope it helps anyway.
