Discover the Features of Tableau Sheets

Tableau worksheets utilize shelves and cards (such as Columns, Rows, Marks, Filters, Pages, and Legends) to create visualizations. Here’s how placing fields on these elements affects your view:

  1. Structure: Shelves like Columns and Rows determine the basic layout of your chart.
  2. Detail and Marks: Placing fields on shelves and cards influences the granularity of the data displayed and the number of marks shown.
  3. Visual Encoding: The Marks card allows you to encode marks with color, size, shape, text, and detail, adding context and meaning to your visualization.

Exploring different field arrangements on these shelves and cards is essential for effective data analysis.
