[michelb]

Thank you so much for your video 🙏🏾. Please I just texted you on Instagram. I really wanted to know how I can create a reset button that will reset (desactivate) action filters because let’s say I want all my total sales to show instead. I’d appreciate your help on this please 🙏🏾

It's amazing
I am so thankful for your nice video materials...
It's hard to describe all of my emotions.
You have made a great deal)

After repeating it in Tableau Public I have two questions:
Can I repeat the same for the first and the last quarter like in the video?
How can I change the size (zoom out) of some graphics on the dashboard?

[suzannecoldfeather]

This was very helpful! I have implemented something similar on a table. Is there any way we can also change the background color of the cell on selection? similar to how we changed the color of the shape.

[joshdee]

Hey great video man, earned my sub. I have a question if you see this. Why did adding a blank field to the time series allow you to keep the other quarter selections colored? I cant wrap my head around what adding that blank field in quotes actually did

[nftmobilegameshindi]

how to see all values?? if We want to see sales by all the years then there is no option for it in your dashboard because there is only one option to select which is quarter 1, 2 etc But it is no value like all Which we have in filtres

[matthiasgiger]

Is the chart at the bottom a visual best practice?

[shravankumarsakri]

Sir how is future scope for tableau and power bi for next 10-12 years

[aniljhurani]

Hey excellent video, all I need to know is after selecting dual axis, one also synchronizes the axis, but in this case I did not see this any reason ? or is it because both the measures are same ?

[jacobs]

This is very great video! Question: is there any way: when we click one of those quarters, the sales trend will change it as well? So, we don't need to hover over the sales by subcategory.

[jacobs]

Hi! I tried to make it like this for the year. I got 3 years, but it only showed 2 years. Any solution for this?
