Tableau Dashboards

Dashboards

Dashboards are a fundamental tool for presenting your data. You've used Tableau Desktop's worksheets to explore your data and perform valuable analysis. Combine all of those worksheets onto a dashboard to provide the big picture of your data.

We've also enabled our analytics capabilities to work across all worksheets in a dashboard. Take quick filters, for example. They can be used to filter all of your data on a dashboard at once with a couple clicks of a mouse, no coding required.

Improved Visual Styling

Improved Visual Styling

Visual information is at the heart of Tableau's products, and this release improved many aspects of how information is presented. This includes better default positioning, including the orientation of text and numbers. Even the physical layout of filters, legend cards and charts are more intuitive and adapt for each item's size.

Color legends are also interactive. Selecting one color highlights all selections of that color while graying out all others. This easily allows you to home in on the data that is important to you.
