Column Selector

reporting_ColumnSelector

Description

The column selector component is conceptually similar to the Row Selector, except that instead of filtering rows, it filters columns from its output dataset. Each column from the input dataset is shown as a checkbox. As the user checks and un-checks columns, the output dataset has those columns added or removed. This is very handy for driving the Table and Classic Chart components.
