Hello everyone,
I am using VA 7.2 and I have a question about mapping a column to two different columns in an Info Window. I know that a column can only be linked to one other column, so I tried duplicating the column and link the duplicate to the second column. However, I want to display all the rows where either the first column equals the chosen value or the second column equals the chosen value. Let me illustrate the problem with a simple example. I have 5 players that play a simple game (coinflip), and I want to see all the games a player has played by clicking on the player. Let the List Table containing the players be given by:
Player Wins
A 3
B 1
C 0
D 2
E 1
Now, I want to click on the row for player A and see all the games played by player A. So I want to have an Info Window, containing a List Table that looks like this:
Player 1 Player2 Winner
A B 1
A D 2
E A 1
A C 1
B A 2
Hence, I want to map the column Player from the first List Table to Player 1 and Player 2 in the second List Table. However, by duplicating the column Player, and linking one to Player 1 and one to Player 2, the Info Window will only show the rows where both Player 1 and Player 2 are equal to A, which are none. I know a solution could be to duplicate the entire dataset with games and create 2 rows for every game and write both players once as player 1. However, I prefer not to duplicate the data set due to its size, and the 2 columns do have a different interpretation in my data set.
Does anybody have an other solution how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Mick
