Navigation Menu

On the top right of the visual you see the navigation menu.

The navigation menu is visible all the time, unless disabled for the viewer. This can be done in the menu restrictions. For example, if you use a visual as a report page tool tip or the viewer isn't allowed to do drill downs.

When you are exporting the report as a PDF or to Power Point, the menu will be disabled automatically.

The following list explains each symbol:
