Element properties
You can define properties for elements and special elements in the axis specification. You specify the properties after the element to which they apply as follows:
<properties> ::= [<property> [, <property>]]
<property> ::= CalculationScope=AllElements|PrecedingElements
| CountsOnly=True|False
| Decimals=
DecimalPlaces | Factor=
FactorValue | IsFixed=True|False
| IsHidden=True|False
| IsHiddenWhenColumn=True|False
| IsHiddenWhenRow=True|False
| IncludeInBase=True|False
| IsUnweighted=True|False
| Multiplier=
MultiplierVariable
| Weight=
WeightVariableThe examples in this section show how to use element properties. In the examples, the axis specification is presented on multiple lines for clarity. In practice, you must specify the axis specification without line breaks.
References in expressions
NumericVariable (AnalysisVariable), Multiplier, and Weight properties must be specified as absolute references. However, variable references in expressions need to be specified as relative references. Using the Household.mdd sample as an example, when editing a categorical variable at the person level, if you want to display the mean of man’s weight, add the following mean element:
mean(person[..].weight, ’gender.ContainsAny({Male})’)
