Drill down on piano roll

Hello,
I am missing a very important feature in Logic Pro X which is the ability to drill down in the Piano Roll. In Logic 9 (and below) I was able to select multiple midi tracks and edit them in the piano roll (this is still possible in Logic Pro X) but was able to double click on a note and show only the notes in the single track. Double clicking on the piano roll background would bring back all the notes from all the selected tracks again. Although this feature is removed I would be happy with a key command to be able to switch between single track view and all selected track view. Does anyone know whether this is possible?
Thanks,

Hi user8173722,
When it comes to drills in OBIEE, you've got a few tools at your disposal:
1) Dimension hierarchies in RPD -- This method won't work for you because these are drills on measures. Dimension hierarchies only work with dimensional data and not fact measures
2) Navigate -- This associates reports from the same subject area on related columns. The issue you are having with this is that this method requires the field clicked on to be an RPD column which in your case is not true.
3) Bins -- These provide pseudo drills that are only one level deep and each bucket has to be custom setup by you. This is not what you want.
4) GO URLs -- This allows you to specify a custom filter and target report in the URL. The problem is that you'll have to turn the field in question into a text type field and not a number. If you are putting your count(*) into the measure section of the pivot table, this will cause problems.
Out of the above methods, there are only two that are viable. 2 and 4 are the only viable solutions. Method 4 is rather difficult to code and not the most pleasant thing to support. So I recommend you go with the navigate feature.
In order to get it to work, you'll need to add the column as a measure in your fact table in the RPD. Add a logical column and specify the Aggregate behavior to COUNT. Then bring this column into you presentation layer. Keep in mind that you cannot navigate across subject areas, so make sure both reports are coming from the same subject area.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,
-Joe

    Maybe find a local who can translate for you. I don't know what to tell you for dealing in another country for service on your computer.
    I can offer you something you can do if you want to give it a try. You'll need a backup of your data in your Home folder because you need to erase the drive. You'll also need a solid, preferably fast, internet connection.
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Why are my piano roll changes not being bounced down?  Help!

    I'm trying to make some minor changes to a click track sound.  Just moved it down a key in piano roll, but no matter what I do, it doesn't seem to take in the final bounce down.  Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks.
    Jabo

    Think of the arrow pointing from large to small, so the wide fat or large end of the arrow is at the top and the sharp pointy or small end is at the bottom. So it will sort from large to small and alaphbetically Z is larger than A. Click the Name bar and the arrow will reverse with sharp pointy end, small, at the top and large fat end at the bottom so it will now sort A to Z, as A is deemed to be smaller than Z.
    Hope that helps?

  • Transpose function in piano roll shuts down logic

    So I move one midi region to another track then want to transpose it say a 3rd away. I bring up the piano roll, then click functions, then transform, then transpose, then logic shuts down. Seems to be happening all the time now, even on my brand new mac pro dual quad.
    Anyone seen this problem and discovered a solution

    If you care to, would you like to tell me how your experience was changing from 8 to 9?
    My personal experience has been very favourable. Have wrote about it elsewhere on this forum, search my posts if you like. I did it as part of a complete fresh system update (including installing a totally new system drive), going from Tiger/Logic 8x to Snow Leopard/Logic 9x. In short, I've worked on a couple of fairly heavy projects so far with the new setup, and I have (with no exaggeration) not had a single crash yet. I have had some strange behaviour with certain functions, but not crashes - notably, no crash when using the piano roll editor, which regularly caused crashes for me in Logic 8. The only crash I had with 9 was when opening an older project from Logic 8 which had video in it, but I managed to work around that, and also created a fresh new startup template for Logic 9 to avoid any other possible weirdnesses.
    Bear in mind though that no two Logic users work in the same way - there are certainly a whole bunch of features routinely used by others that I might never even touch. So your mileage may (in fact, will) vary. But overall, my experience has been very positive. I definitely don't get the piano roll window crashes anymore, which may be enough of a reason for you to upgrade right there.

  • Roll-up and Drill-down in JOLAP

    HI!!!!
    I'm studing the JOLAP specification and I don't understand how to implement the drill-down and roll-up operations.
    Where can I find some example about it?
    HELP, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    :-(

    Hello,
    Just to add to the above replies from our two experts.
    I checked your scenario, and I think maybe you can acheive this just by changing the macro's execution level, from detailed level to aggregated level. Here you do not need the drill_down and drill_up macros, which are time consuming ...
    Please have a try and good luck

  • Roll-Up/Drill-Down Problem with Discoverer

    Hi,
    I am trying to produce some summary data, but am not exactly sure how to proceed.
    Specifically, I have a table containing attendance data for a number of weeks. Part of table is shown below. 1 indicates attendance and 0 indicates absense.
    |-------------------------------------------------|
    | Attendance ID | Wk_1 | Wk_2 | Wk_3 | Wk_4 | ... |
    |-------------------------------------------|-----|
    | 0001 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | ... |
    | 0002 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | ... |
    |-------------------------------------------------|
    Each student has a number of attendance_ids, each one represents a particular subject they study.
    For example:
    |------------------------------------------------|
    | Student Name | Attend ID | Subject | Attendance|
    |------------------------------------------------|
    | Amberley | 0001 | IS3004 | 50 |
    | | 0002 | MM3003 | 75 |
    | | 0003 | PR3003 | 60 |
    |------------------------------------------------|
    In Discoverer, to create a percentage attendance, I add up all the columns and then divide by the number of weeks.
    However, what I would really like to do, is to be able to roll this data up for summary based work and then to be able to drill down as necessary.
    Looking at the Video Store Tutorial, Stores were rolled up into Cities and Regionsc, can anyone give me some pointers on how I could roll up my data?
    Thanks,
    Eddie

    Hi Eddie,
    Try looking up hierarchies in the Administrator Guide.
    However, I'm afraid you'll have to pivot your attendance table in order to create a hierarchy.
    Example:
    Now:
    att_id week_1 week_2 week_3 ...
    1001 0 1 1 1
    1002 1 1 0 1
    1003 1 1 1 0
    Needed for hierarchy:
    att_id week_nr att_boolean
    1001 1 0
    1001 2 1
    1001 3 1
    1002 1 1
    Look up "pivoting scenarios" in the data warehousing guide (OTN documentation) on how to do this (preferably a view on the original table, if necessary materialized view).
    Then add additional time columns (or, better yet, create a time hierarchy table) with appropriate date hierarchy values, ie quarter and year. A weekbased hierarchy is tricky though, because weeks can "break" from one month/quarter/year to the other. So, figure this out carefully before you start creating you're time hierarchy.

  • OBIEE 11g: Build a drill down detail on the count of records

    Hello:
    I have a summary report based on certain criteria shows the count of certain number of records for example, count(sales_id).
    Region (North), Product Category(ABC) -> 15 (Sales record count using count(sales_id))
    I want the ability to provide another detail report which will be the drill down of 15 that shows 15 sales records in detail.
    The detail report will be invoked using the Action Link which has the BI navigation from the Measure Column (that has 15) to pass the list of sales_id's as the prompted filter based on the analysis results from the summary report.
    Any idea on what I need to do in the summary report to pass the list of sales id's instead of the count 15? I do not want to display the sales_id's in the summary report.
    Thanks

    SankarIn your example, each of the 15 sales IDs are in the same Product Category (ABC), yes? So put the action link on this column instead of the measure (so ABC in this example would be the link). In the detail report, you will need to include the Sales ID column in order to produce the 15 rows, but you can hide it so it doesn't show up on the report. (The reason you want to include the sales ID in the destination report is because the measure column would break out the rows only assuming there are no measures that are the same. If they are the same, they might roll up so having the sales ID in the report ensures that the rows remain distinct.)

  • Reporting by org hierarchy with drill down by each level of reports to...

    Hello,
    I'm trying to determine how to aggregate reporting by org hierarchy. Utlimately to report on opportunities at the highest level (CEO; all opportunities below CEO) then a second drill down report that shows summary by Level 2 (all those who report to the CEO), then again by Level 3 drill down which would be those who report to somone in Level 2. In all instances I want the report to show all records that ultimately roll up to that level (thus include direct reports alll of their direct and indirect reports )
    Level 1
    CEO $10,000,000 200 Optys
    Level 2
    Sales Leader 1 $ 3,000,000
    Sales Leader 2 $ 2,000,000
    Sales Leader 3 $ 1,500,000
    Sales Leader 4 $ 3,500,000
    Level 3
    <ul><li>- rollup of all that report to Sales Leader 1 (and so on) aggregated by first level of direct reports ($3,000,000)

         Sales Mgr 1.4 $ 250,000</li>
    </ul>
    I'd appreicate any help you can send my way.
    Thanks, Aaron

    Hi Aaron,
    I have come across this and found that using the "Reports To" hierarchy and "Territory Team" hierarchy are not sufficient. I implemented this as a solution for one of our clients and it works very well:
    I have modified the user entity and renamed 4 standard fields:
    •     Business Unit renamed to "Primary Line of Business"
    •     Business Unit Level 1 renamed to "BU Group"
    •     Business Unit Level 2 renamed to "Business Unit"
    •     Business Unit Level 3renamed to "Team"
    Not all fields go through into analytics so I had to use these fields which are available in the Opportunity-Product History subject area. The downside is that they have to be text boxes so restrict access to who can populate these. From this you can get 4 hierarchy levels and drill from one to the next. The record owner then becomes the lowest level in your report and it can look something like this:
    Level 1
    Primary Line of Business
    Level 2
    BU Group
    BU Group
    Level 3
    Business Unit
    Business Unit
    Business Unit
    Level 4
    Team
    Team
    Team
    Team
    Level 5
    Sales Person 1
    Sales Person 2
    Sales Person 3
    Sales Person 4
    Sales Person 5
    Obviously it would appear side by side in the report..
    Thanks

  • Copy and Paste Disabled in Piano Roll

    HI All - this is probably something very basic, but I can't do a simple 'copy and paste' in the piano roll view of MIDI events. If I select a group of events on a drum track and then select Copy, the Paste command is greyed out, i.e. the events are not being copied to the Clipboard. I don't know what setting or preference I could have changed that makes such a basic functionality unavailable. Any tips?

    Hey Thanks Bob, and, aw shucks, that is so obvious now you mention it. I think it was flashback to my original sequencing software, in which you would do all your edits in the Piano roll view, and I was subconsciously remembering that.
    ??? Copy and Paste works perfectly in the Piano Roll editing.... unless you're using the new standard (somewhat lame) single screen editing function in early versions of Logic 9... it's a shame they made this the default behavior.
    Next time you wish to have all the the editing functions in the Piano Roll (formerly Matrix) editor hold down the Option key when Dbl clicking on a MIDI region. The Piano Roll will open in a floating window that has full editing functions...
    Upgrade to 9.1.3 as this has been fixed, why are you using older versions of the program? You have Intel machines, right?

  • Drill down on shared members.

    Hi ,
    I have some filters associated to geography hierarchy in my essbase cube.
    my geography heirarchy looks like this.
    geography
    |_base_members
    |_am
    |_Apac
    |_shared_members
    |_am (Alias: America) (shared members)
    |_ ..etc
    |_Apac (Alias: Asia pac) (shared members)
    now i have created filters giving meta read access on shared members in the above case on .users of america will only see america region.
    but when i drill down and drill up on the member in the report in web analysis, it gives me an unknown member error "am".
    i tried by giving same access to the base members but the report shows the base members.
    is there any other way to handle this error.
    thanks.

    Try deleting Non-Corporate Income before you drill into Total Revenue. Or turn off Retain selected member in your drill options. The problem is that if Essbase sees Non-Corporate Income, then it knows it is the alternate roll up and correctly does not drill on Total Revenue. Remove Non-Corporate Income and Total Revenue, just becomes plain old Total Revenue and you should be able to drill on that.

    While executing the Drill Down report (for e.g S_ALR_87013558) for a particular Project (e.g DWRES-C2005) it is observed that the Actual costs booked on the WBS element (DWRES-C2005-502) does not get rolled up to its higher level WBS Element(DWRES-C2005-501).
    This also does not get rolled up to the top WBS element (DWRES-C2005-500).As this is the case the summation for Actuals columns shows incorrect result.Result should have been (Actuals of DWRES-C2005-500 = Actuals of DWRES-C2005-501 + Actuals of DWRES-C2005-502 ).I have also tried the formatting of the Actuals columns in the Form of the report but I could not find any answer.Can anybody help me in this regard.

  • Enter triplet values in piano roll... and volume question

    How can I get the piano roll grid view to temporarily change to subdivisions of 3 per per beat (instead of 4) in a 4/4 piece so I can align triplets?
    Also, how do I change the volume of a single note in the piano roll editor?
    TIA

    1. In the transport bar, where you see the time signature (default 4/4), just below that is the beat subdivision. You can click on it and drag up or down to change the value. A value of 12 will subdivide a beat into thirds.
    2. You can't really change the volume of a note, per se, since volume is a MIDI parameter that doesn't apply to single notes, but rather as continuous data. You can, however, change the velocity of notes, which will affect the volume of the note if the note's velocity is programmed for volume change. To do this, choose the Velocity tool (escape, then 9) and click the note and drag up or down.

  • Paste notes in Piano Roll changes Region size

    Hi,
    When I copy/paste a note in the piano roll, using cmd+C, cmd+V, it also changes the Region size. Which is not convenient at all.
    When I do it with alt+mouse, it works perfectly fine. But I work mainly with keyboard commands.
    Also, sometimes it even creates a new region on its own.
    I am on LogicPro X 10.0.1, OS X 10.8.4, iMac 2.5 Ghz, 16 Gb RAM.
    I saw similar questions already, but no answer yet.
    Thank you by advance

    You shouldn't have an issue...doing what you are doing.. and I cannot recreate it here..
    But an alternative would be to simply copy the Region itself in the Arrange window....
    Hold Down the Option key and drag region using mouse or trackpad....

  • Transposing in Piano Roll with the Function

    I have a tune that's 2 midi tracks (green), piano and sax.
    I just want to transpose them without having to do it manually ,( selecting all the nots and nudging them up). I don't like doing that with a thousand notes.
    Don't you just hate it when all your creative juice gets frazzeled because you can't do something that is incredibly easy with Garage Band but you can't figure it out with Logic?
    I have spent at least a couple hours with the manual online and the book so as not to be scolded with RTFM.
    This is Logic 8 . I can't find the manual for it online and maybe it matters ??
    I think it can be done GB style from the Piano Roll> functions>Transform>transposition.
    But for the life of me I can't find how to do it anywhere and it's not obvious from the dialog box

    You can { I assume you mean CAN} just select the midi regions in the arrange window and then adjust the transposition to whatever you want using the transpose setting in the inspector? It takes like 0.2 of a second, I just timed myself.
    I dont think this is correct - I never use the transpose setting in the inspector because it transposes the Score. I just tried your suggestion by going +2 and indeed an Eb part goes up to F... but this is the effect where Logic's Score Editor plays back the part in concert but shows a transposed part for printing ( as in transposing instruments - also the notes in the Piano Roll dont transpose)
    @Bobsax try this ( I know you hate nudging the notes but once familiar with these steps it will not interrupt your creative flow):
    1 - Open Key Commands. Type in: '*Transpose Event +1*' and '*Transpose Event -1*' and find out what the key commands are or program them ( I use simple the + and - signs on the numeric pad)
    2 - Go back to the Arrange window and select both regions
    3 - Open the Piano Roll on a separate screen set and zoom out so that you can check all the notes are highlighted - usually Screenset 6 by default. ( Dont do it in the Arrange as there is not usually enough space)
    4 - With both regions selected, press + key (or minus if you are transposing down). Count carefully as many Semi Tones or Half Steps up or down you want to go. You will hear the midi notes sound as they go up or down
    5 - If you make a mistake there is always UNDO or REVERT to SAVED
    This operation takes me less then 5 seconds
