If you choose Option Two, the parameter that stores the value is written with the ID that for this case, would be 2. This is because you just said that you don't want to have the value as the ID.

When setting the property to true, you will still see in the dropdown the options: Option One, Option Two, and Option Three. If you choose Option Two, the parameter will be written with the value and not the ID. If that's the case, the parameter would have Option Two. This is because you said in the property that you want to use the value as the ID. When applying a filter and working with an MDX query, you can set the ID as the unique name of the member.
