Drill through for Gauge visualization.

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Is there a way to do drill through for Gauge? Apparently, when I am right-clicking of Guage, it only shows me three option 1: Show as table 2 group and 3 copy visual. But when I can change the Gauge to Table or matrix, it allows me to do drill through for the same data.  Does anyone know a way around to do drill through for guage. ThanksGuage doesn't show drill throughTable shows drill through

There is not because the gauge does not have any categorical fields (color, region, company, etc).  These are the fields you would put on the rows in a matrix visual and these are the fields that drillthrough uses.  If you make a matrix visual and put just your measure on it there you will see the same behavior.

In my example below I added Category as a drillthrough field to page 2.

When category is in the matrix on page 1 I can drillthrough.

If I remove category from the matrix the "target" of my drillthrough is no longer available to read so I cannot drillthrough.
