I would like to see an included select window for (nearly) all tools. Sometimes almost half of my workflow are select tools because I try to minimize my data and improve naming as much as possible.
Example:
![select_tools.PNG select_tools.PNG](https://community.alteryx.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/96784iC0CEFEFDC09D7E85/image-size/medium?v=v2&px=400)
1) Removing unnecessary columns
2) Removing Lat/Long columns
3) Removing not needed columns from distance tool.
Another example would be the typical usage of cross-tab. In 90% of my cross-tab usage, I put a select tool behind it.
I think it would be good to have an included select window in nearly all tools. There are probably tools that don't need them, but I think it would be a good addition to many tools.
I would suggest to add an included select tool for (at least) these tools:
- Input Data
- Cross-tab
- Tile
- Formula
- Multi-Row Formula
- Multi-Field Formula
- Text To Columns
- Cross Tab
- Transpose
- Create Points
- Distance
- Trade Area
- ...
