Advanced Segmenting Options |
|
Several advanced options are available on the last page of the New Segment Wizard:
Inverse: Visitors are segmented if the criteria is not met. This is useful for highlighting those visitors who do not see a certain page, for example.
Parent Segment: The segment being created is combined with the parent to create a subgroup (like a logical AND in databases). For example, it is possible to segment visitors who are referred from a partner site and further subdivide those who have seen a special offer page. The relationship to the parent segment can be AND or OR.
Display Options
Segments can be turned on and off globally using Display This Segment. They can also be enabled within only specific reports. This can greatly reduce visual clutter and improve performance.
Reanalyze Immediately: Usually this option should be checked. ClickTracks will analyze the data as soon as you click OK in the dialog. If several segments are to be created at the same time, this could lead to several unnecessary passes through the data. In that case, you can uncheck while creating all segments and then either check this option again for the last segment or click the Analyze button 
in the toolbar.
