Single Cell and Exploration Visualisations should have "read-only" or "write" property to prevent data entry

When designing books after adding a "single cell" to a tab (prior to current release that now allows access to fields) if you need to remove because layout incorrect of not required if you use the "delete" key it will clear the contents from the cube at that intersection.

These types of visualisations are not used for data entry purposes so clearing a cubes data should not be allowed or at least prevented by making these "read only" by default and unless data entry is to be allowed the designer can change property to "write" mode.


This functionality should be extended to explorations as well.

    Hi Stuart, the issue here is that a users security may allow them to write to this cell, it is whether this visualisation should allow data entry. In my view it shouldn't as it is a visualisation. You wouldn't expect the database to be updated if you accidentally typed or hit the delete key on another visualisation such as a Bar Graph so why would this be any different? I am also not suggesting a change in security here, just don't allow data entry on the visualisation?

    I would be pretty confident that very few in the PAW community would be using this visualisation to allow data entry as they would just set up standard grid view.

    Regards David

    Not under consideration. TM1 database security should be used to set read only access to the cells displayed in the cube viewer (exploration) and single cell widget. We are not planning on setting security based on the cube viewer or other widget properties.
