Folding / Unfolding sections
Different parts of the data binding interface are grouped into sections.

Data binding workflow
The data binding should read like a sentence :
> From My Data Source, Show My Aggregated Measure Field Group By My Dimension Field.
From : Data Source selector
This is where you will select the Data Source to bind to this Widget.
(see chapter Selecting a Data Source)
Show : Quantities
This is where you will configure the KPI : what quantity you want to visualize.
This will be an aggregated Measure.
(see chapter Configuring the aggregation of number fields and chapter Binding a data field)
Group : Context
This is where you will define what context you will use to group data together.
This will be an un-aggregated Dimension with unique separate values.
(see chapter Configure the grouping of category fields and chapter Binding a data field)
