How to Use the View N Control in Mixpanel's UI

:point_right: *You can adjust the number of displayed segments using the “View N” control (for example, set it to 5 to see the top 5 companies).* Do you want me to show you exactly *where in Mixpanel’s UI* the _View N_ option is located (e.g., under the breakdown chart controls)?

Yes, I can help clarify where the "View N" control is located in Mixpanel’s UI, based on the available knowledge sources.The "View N" control is used in table visualizations within Insights reports. It allows you to decide how many rows (segments) to display per breakdown in your table. In the ungrouped view, you can choose the number of rows to display, and in the grouped view, you can choose the number of rows for each breakdown. However, the exact placement (such as a specific button or menu location) within the Mixpanel UI is not explicitly described in the knowledge sources. The documentation does state: > The View “N” control lets you decide how many rows to display per breakdown in your table.
In the ungrouped view, choose the number of rows to display: In the grouped view, you can choose the number of rows you want to display for each breakdown.It also notes that when selecting “Show All,” the maximum number of segments displayed in the UI will be 3000, given cardinality limits. If your breakdown has more than 3000 segments, you’ll only see the top 3000, dictated by the sort order. But again, the documentation does not provide a screenshot or a step-by-step UI path to the "View N" control itself.In summary:
You can adjust the number of displayed segments using the "View N" control in the table visualization of Insights reports, but the knowledge sources do not specify the exact UI location (such as a button or dropdown label) for this control in Mixpanel’s interface. If you need a precise UI walkthrough, you may need to refer to Mixpanel’s in-app tooltips or help guides for the most up-to-date interface details.Docs / Reports / Insights: Sorting
