It should be good if we can set Drill Mode ON/OFF by DEFAULT instead of clicking manually on the arrow every time on report.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

We would really like to have this functionality in place, it is becoming important for some of our key development areas, thanks!

RE: Drill Mode By Default

I don't want to force my clients to have to keep clicking the drilldown button. And I'd like to avoid the anger and confusion when they think the drilldowns we promised them aren't there.

Would be useful to be able to select then save then publish and it persists. Reporting for end users is about making it user friendly not having them need to click the drill down button every time that they go to the report.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Actually - I propose a hybrid mode where both modes are available. Drill down would be activated by a double-click, standard filter with single click. Or drill down/up icons by each value where drill down is available.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Without being able to set default mode users have little idea how do anything meaningful with the visualisations

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Much needed! Our business customers don't want to play around with the tool to make it work. As a developer, it's our job is to make it seamless for them. Please incorporate if you want more businesses using your tool!

RE: Drill Mode By Default

this is definitely a gap. In absence of this feature the report behaves in a complete non desired fashion and cause lot of churn and confusion in the users mind who is acting on the report. Please prioritize this at the earliest.
