pivotgrid bug

[Payman]

I have added some fields with caption names like this:
location: { caption: "Butik" }
but the problem is that its not used for grouping
it seems like a bug to me, is there way around it?

Hi Payman,

With the current implementation of the PivotGrid, the caption will be displayed in the column's and row's headers only and will not be used in the row/column target settings panels. If you think that this could be a good addition for the PivotGrid you could create an item in our feedback portal:

When using PivotGrid with a flat data source the handles for dragging the dimensions are labelled with a different string to the dimension headers (screenshot attached).

The dimension headers are labelled with the dataSource.schema.cube.dimensions.[name].caption.

The dimension drag handles are labelled with the dataSource.rows.name (or dataSource.columns.name).

Now, the dataSource.rows.name must be the key in the dataSource.schema.cube.dimensions of the dimension and this must also be a key in each item in the data array -- the field that stores the value of the dimension -- and therefore is in general not suitable for showing to users.

In any case, it seems to me to be a bug that the drag handle is labelled with a different string to the dimension caption.

Hi Richard,

All of your observations are correct, but as I have mentioned, this is the current implementation of the control and it will display the caption for the row and column headers only. As I have suggested, you can log this request in our Feedback Portal, so our developers could take that into account when working on the new functionalities for the flat data binding.

Hi,

Did you find any solution or workaround?

Thanks.

Hi Payman,

As I have noticed, the other person having the same issue has not logged the item. Therefore, it has not been evaluated by our management and dev team. Also, we haven't had any demand for fixing the behavior. 

The best I can advise is to actually log the item in our portal in order to make the bug visible for our team and eventually to be implemented:
