Expand a cube dimension and select **Edit \** to display Dimension Designer and edit the database dimension on which the cube dimension is based. For more information about Dimension Designer, see [Dimension Designer (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](dimension-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md). **Attributes** Click to display the available cube dimensions and their associated cube attributes. Expand a cube dimension and select **Edit \** to display Dimension Designer and edit the database dimension on which the cube dimension is based. For more information about Dimension Designer, see [Dimension Designer (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](dimension-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md). ## Context Menu The following options are available in the context menu displayed by right-clicking the **Dimensions** pane: **Add Cube Dimension** Click to display the **Add Cube Dimension** dialog box and add references to existing or new database dimensions in the cube. For more information about the **Add Cube Dimension** dialog box, see [Add Cube Dimension Dialog Box (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](add-cube-dimension-dialog-box-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md). > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **Edit Dimension** Click to display Dimension Designer and edit the database dimension on which the cube dimension is based. For more information about Dimension Designer, see [Dimension Designer (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](dimension-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md). **Rename** Click to rename the selected cube dimension for the cube. > [!NOTE] > Renaming a cube dimension in the **Dimensions** pane does not rename the database dimension on which the cube dimension is based. > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **Delete** Click to remove the selected cube dimension from the cube. > [!NOTE] > Removing a cube dimension from the **Dimensions** pane does not delete the database dimension on which the cube dimension is based. > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **Move Up** Click to move the selected cube database up one place. > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **Move Down** Click to move the selected cube database attribute down one place. > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **New Linked Object** Click to display the **Linked Object Wizard** and link measure groups and dimensions from other cubes, and to import actions, KPIs, and calculations, to the selected cube. For more information about the **Linked Object Wizard**, see [Linked Object Wizard F1 Help](linked-object-wizard-f1-help.md). > [!NOTE] > This option is displayed only if a dimension is selected. **Properties** Click to display the **Properties** window of [!INCLUDE[ssBIDevStudioFull](../includes/ssbidevstudiofull-md.md)] for the selected cube dimension, cube hierarchy, or cube attribute. ## See Also [Toolbar (Cube Structure Tab, Cube Designer) (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](toolbar-cube-structure-cube-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md) [Measures (Cube Structure Tab, Cube Designer) (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](measures-cube-structure-cube-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md) [Data Source View (Cube Structure Tab, Cube Designer) (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](data-source-view-cube-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md) [Cube Structure (Cube Designer) (Analysis Services - Multidimensional Data)](cube-structure-cube-designer-analysis-services-multidimensional-data.md)
