We’ve all done it. We’ve completely ignored the warning label. You know, the one we probably see everyday: CAUTION: Contents Hot We ignore it because it’s understood. We just ordered hot coffee or tea, and we expect it to be hot. We see the steam. The warning label...
A common irritation with tooltip formatting in Tableau is that there is no way of changing the background colour of the tooltip. So, if you have changed the background colour of your sheet to something other than white, the tooltip will be jarring against it: Using...
Bringing an image into a tooltip can be a great way to show additional information in a visually interesting way without overcrowding a dashboard. It could be used to bring in a picture of a product, branded logos or icons to help your viewer link...
In previous posts, we’ve looked at creating conditional fields for tooltips and using parameters to add user control to tooltips. Here, we’ll combine these to have a tooltip that users can turn on and off: To make sure that the tooltip does not show at all...
The year may be half over, but we're just getting started with some great data resources for you! We've recently launched several new blog series, taking closer looks at Snowflake and its modern data cloud capabilities, as well as Tableau tooltips, Alteryx use cases and...
For this tooltip, we have brought multiple worksheets together to give some additional information and improved formatting in our tooltip. The two bar charts are built as normal, and I’ve built two extra sheets for the vertical and horizontal lines in my tooltip: For the vertical...
In this post, we’ll be looking at how we can use a tooltip and worksheet actions to highlight, rather than filter, a data point in our target viz. Here, the primary viz shows the sales by Sub-Category, and the tooltip shows where that Sub-Category sits...
In this new blog series, we’ll be looking at a few advanced techniques for tooltips. To get to grips with the basics, why we use tooltips and how they can add to your views, refer to this blog from my colleague Brooks Barth. You can...
New Year, New Year’s Resolution. I’m not a huge believer in resolutions, but I do have a list of to-dos on my desk, and now seems as good a time as any to get things going. One of those things I’ve been meaning to do...
Tableau is constantly evolving. It does not chimera itself into a beast with three heads, wings, a tail, 16 arms, scales and a blowhole. Rather, it stays true to itself while making itself stronger and better aligned for its target market. Set actions are a...
Tableau recently introduced the viz in tooltip feature to Tableau Desktop, allowing users to add a whole new level of detail to dashboards and worksheets. For those who have been using Tableau for a while, you are already familiar with the impact a strong tooltip...
As purveyors of analytics, we often come against the buttresses of change aversion. Nowhere is this more prevalent than in the lack of acceptance of Tableau tooltips. How often do you present your end users with a powerful and dynamic viz only to be met with, “But where...
Tableau just announced the beta release of Tableau 10.3, and it’s clear that they have been listening to the worldwide Tableau community with the new features and enhancements. While a lot of the new stuff focuses on Tableau Server and Tableau Online, there are exciting...
One of my favorite viz types in the history of the whole wide world of Tableau is the bullet chart. I’m not sure I’ve ever produced a workbook that didn’t make use of this awesome “progress to goal” option because it’s simple, easy-to-understand and visually...
