Rename measures in measure selector
The measure selector is a function I haven't used before. But reading about it and trying to use it I find some needed changes to be able to exploit the possibilities of this function.
One use case could be to be able to replace the measures with a similar measure containing user rights.
Today we have two sets of duplicated analysis. One set with measures without user rights, where all users can see data for the full organization. And one set with measures with user rights (forced criterias), where users are only allowed to see data for their own units.
If I could use the measure selector I should only have one set of analysis and then teach the users to switch between the measures to see the full organization or only their own unit. But this would not be an intuitive choice when the measures are named eg. "Number of empolyees" and "LOS Number of employees". If this should work I would need to be able to rename the measures in the criteriabar to eg. "Show full organization" and "Show my own units (with rights)".
Another use case could be switching between other measures, but for this to be relevant we ofte need to add some calculations. Eg. switch between number of employees (heads) and annual work. But annual work has to be calculated from worked hours. So then it will need a "user calculated measure" (se feature request https://community.targit.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/11480572148508-User-calculated-measures-similar-to-user-dimensions- ) and that these user calculated measure to be selected in the measure selector.
