User friendly names for dimensions

Hello all,
is it possible to display user friendly dimension names in TM1 web app instead of system names?

I.e. show "Plan version" instead of "plan_version"?

In TM1 Web there isn't an interface for viewing dimensions as such. The Web subset editor can only be launched from a view or from a SUBNM in a websheet.

However to answer the general gist of the question yes, you can use member caption or localized member caption to change the display name of a cube or dimension. This works in TM1 Web, CAFE, Cognos Insight. It doesn't work in Perspectives or Architect.

Hello lotsaram,
