    HI Mike,

    The best way to achieve this would be to create a dynamic member (maybe in the Flow/UD8 dimension) that tells it what to pull (could be logic, could just be 'Return "Hello"'. You would then put that on your CubeView row/column with a view of Annotation (V#Annotation:UD8#Dynamic_Hello).

    Brian

Related to my earlier post, there is mention in the Design Guide that you can use GetDataCell with XFMemberProperty.  See excerpt below.  This would suggest GetDataCell can accept text values but I wonder if it's a typo and XFMemberProperty only really works with the Name function.

 

Thx,

Mike

 

XFMemberProperty
This function allows users to specify a Dimension property and display the Member Property
selection as a row or column header on a Cube View. Use this function with the Name() and
GetDataCell() portion of a Member Filter.
