Manually decide pivot dimensions

My users love pivot tables to see information.

In the settings form there appears to only be a button Pivot the table, but no way to specify how.

Hi, this would be a really useful feature for us as well. I would like to change row/column for pivots in the settings. Any plans to work on that in future versions?

Great suggestion. There are a few things we’re planning on doing to improve the pivot table visualization (like row/column subtotals) and this sounds like something we ought to include as well.
