Cell drilldown always sets value of first column

I have the following dashboard table:

      <table>
        <title>messageIdTok=$messageIdTok$ userIdTok=$userIdTok$ subjectTok=$subjectTok$</title>
        <search base="baseSearch">
          <query>| search subject="*$subjectTok$*" UserId="$userIdTok$" ipAddress="$ipAddressTok$" messageId="$messageIdTok$" | table _time,UserId,subject,Operation,messageId,ClientInfoString,ipAddress</query>
        </search>
        <option name="count">10</option>
        <option name="dataOverlayMode">none</option>
        <option name="drilldown">cell</option>
        <option name="percentagesRow">false</option>
        <option name="rowNumbers">false</option>
        <option name="totalsRow">false</option>
        <option name="wrap">true</option>
        <drilldown>
          <condition field="subject">
            <set token="subjectTok">$row.subject$</set>
            <set token="messageIdTok">*</set>
            <set token="userIdTok">*</set>
            <set token="ipAddressTok">*</set>
          </condition>
          <condition field="messageId">
            <set token="messageIdTok">$click.value$</set>
            <set token="subjectTok">*</set>
            <set token="userIdTok">*</set>
            <set token="ipAddressTok">*</set>
          </condition>
          <condition field="UserId">
            <set token="messageIdTok">*</set>
            <set token="subjectTok">*</set>
            <set token="userIdTok">$row.UserId$</set>
            <set token="ipAddressTok">*</set>
          </condition>
        </drilldown>
      </table>

In the "messageId" drilldown condition, i'm using $click.value$. But when I do this, clicking the cell always sets the messageIdTok to the value in the first column (_time in this case). I also notice that when i have table option "drilldown" set to "cell", moving the mouse over the table always highlights the cell I'm hovering over as well as the first cell of that row (video here). 

Any suggestions on how to correct this behavior?

Hi @shaunm001 

Edit - you beat me to it 🙂 Seems you've got it sorted anyway.

You need to use $click.value2$ instead. I've included an example below to test this. It doesnt seem well documented but a few of the docs do reference click.value2 - it seems to suggest click.value sets the "X-axis value" which it presumably infers as _time.

<form version="1.1" theme="dark">
  <label>Search and Filter Dashboard (Makeresults Base)</label>

  <!-- Define default token values -->
  <!-- Define the base search using makeresults -->
  <search id="baseSearch">
    <query>
      | makeresults count=15
      | eval _time = now() - round(random() * 86400)
      | streamstats count as rec_num
      | eval UserId = case(
          rec_num % 3 == 0, "user_A",
          rec_num % 3 == 1, "user_B",
          rec_num % 3 == 2, "user_C"
        )
      | eval subject = case(
          rec_num % 5 == 0, "Email sent successfully",
          rec_num % 5 == 1, "Login attempt failed",
          rec_num % 5 == 2, "Report generated",
          rec_num % 5 == 3, "File upload complete",
          rec_num % 5 == 4, "System error detected"
        )
      | eval Operation = case(
          rec_num % 4 == 0, "LOGIN",
          rec_num % 4 == 1, "EMAIL",
          rec_num % 4 == 2, "UPLOAD",
          rec_num % 4 == 3, "REPORT"
        )
      | eval messageId = "msg-" . rec_num . "-" . substr(md5(_time), 1, 8)
      | eval ClientInfoString = "{\"os\":\"Windows\",\"browser\":\"Chrome\",\"ipAddress\":\"192.168.1.10" . (rec_num % 5) . "\"}"
      | eval _raw = json("{\"os\":\"Windows\",\"browser\":\"Chrome\",\"ipAddress\":\"192.168.1.10" . (rec_num % 5) . "\"}")
