Purpose
The AddIn provides a collection of useful shortcuts for exploratory data analysis and manipulation.
How to Use
The toolbar may not be displayed by default. To display the toolbar, select View > Toolbars > QuickSelect.
Overview:
Description of the Shortcuts:
1. Clear Exclude. Reset the excluded state of all rows.
2. Clear selection (useful if a Heatmap plot is open where the user can not clear the selection within GraphBuilder)
3. Text To Columns ... (from Cols/Utilities) *)
4. add dummy rows - workaround for Graph-Builder-Combine-Smoother-and-Line
5 - 7: Three shortcuts along the idea: Save the current selection as a column:
5. Label Selected Rows. Similar to Name Selection in Column ...
The differences:
- It uses a column with data type Multiple Response, new information is appended, no pre-existing value is overwritten. This allows the user to collect information in an iterative way.
- predefined tags (which can be edited by the user via settings)
6. Add Selected Column (dynamic version). Generates a column with formula selected()to dynamically label selected/non-selected rows as 1/0. The column can be used in GraphBuilder plots as Overlay or Color to dynamically split the evaluation between the selected and non-selected subset (like it is explained in several webinars and Community posts).
7. Add Selected Column (static version). It just saves the current selection as 0/1.
8. open the current selection as a linked subset
- extremely useful for on-the-fly data curartion and exploratory data analysis
9. Invert. Invert the current row selection. "select all rows" (if no row is selected) *)
10. Current Selection -> Exclude. Mark the selected rows as excluded *)
