Hello ,
I would like to thank every one how tried to help me to answer all the questions already asked.
Today I have a question about how to rename a field in a visualization, maybe I have to create a measurement? How do you do that? Thank you
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
double-click to Field name in Visualization pane
@user83 , not very clear. But if you rename a field in Visualization pane. This will be renamed in that Visual. If you rename it in the table it will be renamed everywhere, where it has the same name.
if I understand you correct double-click and rename
Yes, just double-click on the field name in the field list of the visuals, and type in the new name that will only be used for that visual. The field name in the field list for all tables will remain unchanged.

Hello,
sorry friends I wasn't clear : so the field is called data at the field box and at the visual I want it to be called 'DataX1'.
is this possible ?
