Adding an expression or list of values

You can apply Dynamic Styling with a defined Field expression or add a List of Values... separated by a specific sign (the default is a comma). The sign that acts as the separator for your list of values is defined in the next field, Separator.

The full name for the list of values field is List of value(s), separated by a specific sign; the default is a comma. Click the expression button to view or edit the expression (Figure 7).

Although the default separator is a comma, you can use semi-colons, pipe ( | ), the back ( \ ) or forward ( / )slash, and hyphens ( - ).

• Example of a list of values: ='Total EBITDA,Total OpEx,Indirect OpEx,Direct EBITDA,Direct OpEx'
