Dashboard param menu

Is there a way to create a menu for the params.I tried tag , but it did not work (there is no menu in the params,and the param I created was missing) .Somebody help

Thanks

Hi Ding YouXing

When you use the self-contained data source, all of the parameters exist in flat ‘not in menu’ category. If you want to make use of menus, you will need to use the “External XML Data Source”. When you do this, the menu editor in the parameter dialog is activated.

Hi James,
It’s really helpful.I have another question, and it’s been bothering me.
When using dashboard as datalinq, The Xpression’s preview sometimes makes an error.The preview is correct but the output will show what it looked like when it was made.
I checked the log of the datalinq, showed that the dashboard always disconnected and turned it on again.

I guess the following might be the reason.

  1. I used Chinese as the name of the param, It will be garbled code in the datalinq log.Did it make the error? How to make the code to utf8 in dashboard?
  2. I stream too many params(800-900). Is it better if I do not streaming the unused.( stream=“false”)

Many thanks
