I have 2 questions here, please help me.
First one, i would like to know on what basis Chart Web part y-axis columns are taken. why i could not get my own site columns in Y-axis. Please refer the below image.
Second question, i have created a list but when i add Description & Comments (multiple text) fields, the text color is coming differently. The text color is not matching with the other list column names. Please let me know how to correct this..??
Thanks for your guidance & help.
Y field will have to be numeric. X field can be any type. This would make sense, because if it is not numeric how will you show it in the chart? if the column is a choice column, etc. you can create a calculated column that reflects the original column but outputs a number.
Description and Comments are coming up as different because they cannot be sorted or filtered. They are there to provice a visual indication to the end user. you can ofcourse change them usign CSS/jquery...

Basically I'd like to from this :
What I have
To this :
What I Want
Case in Orange are data that I pick up with an sql request while "This e-learning phase..." is just a plain text.
Does anybody knows how to do that ?
You could add a Parent Row Group and Group by the Information field.
Unfortunately, this would place the Information on the Left side of the table. Fortunately, there is a Layout Direction property for the table that can be switched from LTR to RTL so that the table is created from Right to Left instead of the default Left to Right.
This way the grouped information field on the right would only have one cell while there may be multiple Activities.
I'm not sure you'll be able to do this exactly how you want. This is because you cannot add rowgroup columns after non-grouped columns.
The only way you could get close is to not show the text if it's not the first row in the dataset (or rowgroup if the report is grouped somewhere)
You could use something like this in the Value expression.
=IIF(
ROWNUMBER("myDataSet_Namehere") =1,
"This e-learning phase must be completed before the start of the classroom part indicated below.",
Nothing
)
You could use a similar check to then set the vertical alignment property.
It looks like this...
The other option would be to move the test to the top of the table on it's own row in above the column headers, it would probably look neater..
Or you can wait for somebody else to come up with a better solution :)
Suppose i have data source for tableau to perform report.
dbo.myreport
Also i check is the value(s) right or wrong?
Let me provide picture to be more clear
i create query that check is the value(s) right or wrong. For example 6,6 is wrong and in dbo.checkmyreport i have structure
date;variable;value;right-wrong
07.05.2021;x1;6,6;wrong
how to do to if value from dbo.checkmyreport marked is wrong then it must automatically must be marked as red in tableau report.
Is there possible?
I'm assuming that you have already added this data into Tableau and kept the column names as such right? And you have already created the desired bar chart.
In Tableau add the "right-wrong" dimension to the Color marks and set the colors as appropriate. That should let you color all the bars that are labelled as "wrong" in a specific color.
I have a group of trellis graphs on some data, in there you can see a numeric variable on the Y axis and a series of cell dishes on the X axis. Not all the numeric values are present on all the series of cells. Because of this the visualization results in a graph with empty spaces:
This is OK most of the time but the thing is I would like to avoid the "empty spaces, only in these graph series, that you can see between the bars. I would like to see showing only the pattern of the cell dishes where I have data.
Trying to do so I tried creating a calculated column to use it as a ordering index (https://docs.tibco.com/pub/sfire-bauthor/7.9.0/doc/html/en-US/GUID-8CAA18D0-CF28-4707-9945-041BDFD99E99.html) (Sorting Filter values asc/desc on Tibco Spotfire), after that "Limit data by expression" using a "[MyColumn] is not null" on it (https://community.tibco.com/questions/can-i-automatically-make-spotfire-ignore-empty-values-categories-charts) (How to show the top 10 column values in Spotfire) with no luck and I tried also (https://docs.tibco.com/pub/spotfire/6.5.1/doc/html/ncfe/ncfe_details_on_custom_expression.htm) create a custom expression, which I think it would be a good solution because I understand it will only affect these graphs and not the complete set of visualizations but no, I don't reach the point to change it. Last that it should work but it doesn't is to "Show/Hide Items" under a Boolean expression that it would include that "[Axis.Value] is not NULL" and "Apply individually for each trellis panel" of the numeric column which sound terrific but... nope, it didn't work either...
Any help would be appreciated, now I will select one by one on individual graphs extracting them and plotting them in other place but this is not very useful as a "large scale" solution. I am sure there is a way to insert a proper expression to avoid the null values of the cross of both variables, the numeric and the cell dishes.
this is because you are trellising data, not the axis. you won't be able to filter out values on the x axis; it's simply not how trellis works.
using multiple visualizations is the solution, but I assume you've got n sets of categories that you want to separate out without creating a ton of charts on the page and perhaps you can't guarantee the number of categories or their names, so you want to build a flexible solution.
please check out an answer I just wrote over here which illustrates how to use a document property and a property control to limit a visualization. your property control can be linked to automatically and dynamically display unique values in your "category" column (the one you are trellising by). maybe this can be a solution for you?
I couldn't figure out how to word the question, so please comment if you have a better wording.
I am creating a report the has multiple sections, all displayed on one sheet. One of the sections need to be displayed at equal column widths, while the rest of the report has varying column widths. What I would like to do is display this section as some sort of chart/table that will display as if it was part of a continuous report. Should I be using listboxes or is there a better option?
Thanks for any help.
I'm not sure I completely understand your question, but from what I do understand, maybe what you could do is put the part with the fixed column widths on another part of your sheet and then:
Copy it
Go to where you want it in the report and Paste Special > Linked Picture (I)
I think that would give you what you're looking to accomplish, otherwise, please clarify a bit more...
I was hoping to get a bit of help regarding formulas in Excel/VBA, I'm looking to do the following but I'm not sure how best to do it:
Okay, so I have a materials export from a piece of software and it comes out with the following sort of data:
In essence I would like to have a catalogue stored on a separate sheet which the function references for text strings that may be contained in a takeoff.
i.e. in E2 the function will check the column B for cells containing the text strings in A16:A18 (the consoles) and return any results along with the corresponding quantity to columns E and F. Similarly this will occur for the controller and cables.
I'm sure there's a solution somewhere but I've been unable to find one for lack of knowing what to search exactly.
Thanks for any help guys, it's appreciated.
What you may want to use is the COUNTIF function. Try this:
COUNTIF(A$2:A$13,"*" & A16 & "*")
If I am not mistaken you can check for the values in A16:A23 in the database dump column B1:B13, then you want the summer quantity for the matching values, where a match means the text you look for must be contained in the database dump column.
To get the quantity accordingly use the following formula in cell B16:
=SUMIFS(C$2:C$13;B$2:B$13;"*"&A16&"*")
then drag it into the other cells. The asterisks are text wildcards, so there may be text in front or behind the text part we look for.
