Fix, Unfix and Toggle Values

You can fix values to display the value rules grouped by the selected values.

Only the value rules that contain the selected or fixed value are displayed. The value with the corresponding dependent dimension (column) is displayed above the value rule table. The corresponding column is no longer displayed in the value control table.

When you create a new value rule, the fixed values are predefined. You only have to define the values that are not fixed.
