Notes:
- This feature is available since Diamonds 2024. In older versions of Diamonds, you can use the option ‘end values bar’ instead, but then you’ll need to some cleaning up in Excel.
- At the moment, it is not possible to request this type of info in the table for multiple common points at once. You’ll need to do it one by one.
- Neither is it possible to export the data for all combinations at once. You’ll need to do it combination by combination.
