    Great video that doesn't lose its relevance! I dare add its timing for the most impatient: 1. 1:32 - dynamic reference line 2. 5:37 - split into two colors 3. 7:08 - sales forecast 4. 9:55 - sales forecast started from dynamic reference line 5. 14:45 - dynamic sorting 6. 18:18 - dynamic sorting combined with the Top-N 7. 21:32 - dynamic dimension 8. 24:13 - dynamic measure 9. 26:42 - dynamic axis name ??? 10. 27:30 - dynamic view (this is really hot!) 11. 32:18 - date range (&dynamic title) 12. 36:09 - user-defined moving average 13. 39:45 - dynamic scatter-plot 14. 44:30 - filtering across data-sources (&option to pick 'All')

Using your example above (around 09:00 time on your video), I'd like to be able to create a sales forecast parameter that will be different for different sub-categories. So, we will have parameter fields for each sub-category where we'll choose different values: Appliances 5%, Labels 2% etc. Do you think it is possible? Thank you

    Hi Andy! Excellent video. It was very helpful. However, I am not able to use parameter to select a worksheet (Bar chart / Map). I did the exact same thing as you. I created a Vertical container and dropped the first chart in it. Then, I tried to drop the second chart (worksheet) into the lower end of the container. In your video, the selected worksheet quickly occupied the entire container. However in my case, both the worksheets takes equal space (half-half) regardless of the parameter value. So when one worksheet is selected, the other half remains blank. I have been trying to do this for a long time and have been facing the same issue. Now, I saw your video for some other reason and when I saw this I was excited. Still, I am not able to do it. Any help would be appreciated. Please tell me what I could possibly be doing wrong. What I did: 1) Create a treemap in one worksheet 2) Create a bubble chart in another worksheet 3) Create a parameter to control it and apply the corresponding Calculated Field value to the filter (the non-selected worksheet becoming blank works fine) 4) Create a dashboard and try to pack both the sheets in a VERTICAL CONTAINER (Yes, I did not use the horizontal one because I read somewhere that it won't work). I really want to know what I am doing wrong :) Thanks a lot Andy! I am a great fan of your Soccer dashboards in vizwiz.com. Keep doing the great work!

    4:37 the parameter I created is not listed in the Reference line drop down list. This is because you did not add the parameter to the sheet. I am on PC; maybe on a Mac you don't need to do this (?). Right click on the parameter>Add to sheet. Once that is done then the parameter (Pick a Date) is listed.

    Hi Andy. Great video. I have a problem with a filter. Hope you or someone can help me solve it. I have a slider filter that goes from ranges 10 to 100 in increasing values of 1. What i want is to limit the range of values to 10....so if my lower value is 13, my higher value can be any integer number between 13 and 23 but no greater than 23 , so the user can only select ranges of maximum 10 values each time, between the range 10 to 100. Thanks in advance

    Hi Andy, First of all great video. I wanted to know two things regarding using parameter as a filter for different data sources. First- in the video we have taken parameter values from the Region field from sample superstore. Will this be updated if in the future more regions flows in. Second- We can also use the same filter in two different data sources by using data blending. Which one will be more efficient? Using parameter or using data blending. Waiting for your reply.

Order Start and End Dates only for the Monthly View and Shipping Start and End Dates only for the Daily View. Always these 5 Date parameters are displaying in the dashboard when I drag all these three sheets. But I want only related dates should be displayed on the dashboard based on the selected View.

    Hi Andy, I have a Parameter issue, that I cant seem to find a solution for and I was hoping you could point me in the right direction. My dashboard has multiple parameters and sets (for multi-select options) Is there a way for a selection in one parameter to "filter" down the available options in the other parameters? For example: Say you have 2 parameters one for a vehicle type and the second for vehicle Models. The 1st parameter has Car and motorcycle. the second parameter has a list of models both cars and motorcycles. This issue I am having is that if I select "motorcycles" from the 1st parameter, Tableau does not instinctively filter the second parameter to the motorcycle models. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you so much for your videos. They have really helped me.

    Andy: in a real bind. Can I use a click after to filter a parameter? community.tableau.com/message/868307?et=watches.email.thread#868307 Basically, I have a line chart on one dashboard and bar chart on the second dashboard that have the same parameter. I also have bullets explaining my data differently on the first dashboard. I want to click the first dashboard's bullet to have the related bar chart appear. It's really urgent been at for 4 days per a request by my supervisor who refuses to accept this can't be done.
