I have actually seen this a few times on Windows - never on Mac or Linux. I
suspect it is a bug with the javascript library we using (Ext JS) but we
will try to look into it more closely and see what we can do.

As you know, categories, org unit group sets and data element group sets
can be used as dynamic data dimensions in DHIS. For the categories you can
select explicitly which ones should appear as data dimensions (in pivot,
visualizer etc). We figured that most group sets would make sense as data
dimensions - but that assumption might be wrong and we could easily add an
option for picking which group sets should appear as dimensions. Let us
know.

I am not sure how your "Malaria all" group set is defined, but ideally a
group set should be suitable as data dimension - for instance it could give
you the totals of groups of malaria-related data elements.

regards,

Lars
