Makeover Monday: India's BSE Sensex as an Area Chart You can change the number of columns for only a few paragraphs of your document, for a whole section, and for text in a text box or shape. From the drop-down menu of a dashboard sheet, you can also select Use as Filter.One bug that I've reported is that when you Command+Drag to duplicate a field, you won't see the little + that you do on Windows that is a visual clue that you're duplicating the field. If the Save dialog box does not display, see the Troubleshoot extracts. emmab if you do Command+1 the box comes out, or you can highlight the cell (s) and right click to format cells. Option+Drag will show you the aggregation options for the field. Now, you no longer have to use Tableau Desktop to extract your data sources. That may be able to help you if you were looking to get into the font dialogue box. On Tableau Desktop, Right-click (control-click on Mac) the item you.
On Windows this is Control+Drag (Tableau could not keep it the same because on Mac Control+Left-click = context menu by convention). On Tableau Server or Tableau Online web editing, double click the item you want to change. Thus, Tableau has to use a keyboard modifier.Ĭommand+Drag will duplicate a field (i.e., copying the same field from/to a shelf from/to LOD). Tableau cannot show both the context menu and drag. On Mac, the convention is on right-click press down you see the context menu (try it in finder). On right-click release, Tableau shows the "right-click menu".
On right-click press down, no menu is shown and you can then drag the pill around.On windows there are effectively two events: The Option+Left Click is necessary because Mac and windows handle the right-click event slightly differently.
The Mac OS works differently, so if you're considering switching to Tableau for Mac, here are some handy tips to keep in mind (via this response by Vijay Doshi on the Tableau Forums): You will be asked for credentials - the text box names map onto the Interact Advanced Analytics Configuration.
Most people that have been using Tableau for years have become very familiar with right-click+dragging pills to bring up context menu (particularly for dates), plus lots of other keyboard shortcuts.
