PivotTable
Specify the layout of the table that is generated by the pivot table.
The DataPilot displays data fields as buttons which you can drag and drop to define the DataPilot table.
Layout
To define the layout of a pivot table, drag and drop data field buttons onto the Filters, Row Fields, Column Fields and Data Fields areas. You can also use drag and drop to rearrange the data fields on a pivot table.
LibreOffice automatically adds a caption to buttons that are dragged into the \<emph\>Data Fields \</emph\>area. The caption contains the name of the data field as well as the formula that created the data.
To change the function that is used by a data field, double-click a button in the Data Fields area to open the Data Field dialog. You can also double-click buttons in the Row Fields or Column Fields areas.
