individual count is not getting displayed besides each individual data item in Designer tab

[amitgsas1]

Hi, i am working on Insight Toy Company 2012 data and i noticed that individual count is not getting displayed besides each individual data item in Designer tab.

eg: Facility Continent  6

      Facility Country   32

      Facility City        125

Can you please let me know how to get this count of 6, 32 and 125 besides each data item. I am unable to see the count.

Also is the distinct count option useful in getting this data. I tried the distinct count option but i could'nt get it. 

Can someone also please explain me a practical example using distinct count ?

Hi amitgsas1,

I haven't worked with the Insight Toy data, so I don't know why you're not seeing the counts in the Data tab in the designer.  As for your question about distinct counts, see Create a Distinct Count for a Category Data Item for some examples and the steps needed to create a distinct count.  (This link is for 7.3, but the steps are the same for 7.2.)

It is possible to turn off the distinct counts on the Data tab. In Designer, if you select File > Preferences > SAS Visual Analytics > SAS Visual Analytics Designer, is the box "Bypass cardinality checks" selected?
