Visual suggestion for vertical table column

Hi,

 

What is the best visual if I want to display my data in vertical way ? in a sense that I will only display it 1 record (row) at a time, so it will be the "tooltips" page with key of the the primary key field, for example in item master table, the ITEMID will be the tooltip key

 

PS: .. and I know about Matrix then Show on row... but this time it's not it. It is just a plain data that I want to show vertical wise., don't have any measures.

 

Thanks,

Hi @admin_xlsior 

Is your problem solved? Can you provide some sample data without sensitive data?

Hi,

 

Sorry for not very clear, I was meant like a Pivot-ing your 1 row table. Like the example Item table it will be something like this:

 

Item Id  : ABCD

Name    : test

Group    : Group1

Active    : Yes

...etc

 

Thanks,

 

 

@admin_xlsior , Put these as matrix values and try with the option "Show on row"

This does not work. If you use a Matrix for that single record, it will try to summarize and do things that make no sense. 

Hi Amit,

Yes, I tried that. Not good 🙂

 

Thanks
