Dynamic Zone Visibility in Tableau 2022.3 | with Sample Use cases

Dynamic Zone visibility added to the Latest Tableau version 2022.3 enables the users to interact with dashboards in a much seamless manner, this enables the users to not just show and hide sheets/charts/containers but also allows to swap sheets on the go without the fuss of creating complex calculations
In this video on my channel I will cover A-Z about this new feature on Tableau with 3 sample use cases step by step that you can easily follow along with me
Feel free to download the Tableau workbook to practice along and look at the calculations while following this video from Tableau Public public.tableau.com/app/profil...

Thanks so helpful🎉

[@techianshi]

Thanks Alishaa ❤️❤️

[@Orholam5]

thanks the examples were great. I'm glad Tableau took a step towards better navigation but they really should work on integrating all the work you do to add icons as a built-in option. It's almost as if they have absolutely no concept of how people use their sofware

[@techianshi]

Thanks for the feedback I think this is a great suggestion you can forward to #Datafam on Twitter tagging Tableau as well

[@AliTwaij]

nice thankyou

[@techianshi]

Thanks Ali 🙏

Hi fantastic to see you 😮 and your experience 😊...

[@techianshi]

Thanks Raghavendra

[@raghavendraj3758]

Looking smart 😀

[@rajkumarkatta2500]

Is it possible to swap between multiple charts. Ex: I have four metrics A,B,C,D and each of these have sub metrics, now the requirement is when I select A it has to show its sub metrics 1,2,3 (sheets) in one container and when I select B it has to give 5,6,7,8 sheets in same container and same with C and D.
Is this possible to achieve mam?

[@aashis1318]

great.. however do we have an alternative for copy pasting values from excel to clipboard. that creates a new data source.

[@techianshi]

U can import it as Excel file or csv from data pane Aashi

[@TakkoluSampathReddy]

Suppose if we need to show " All " in chart selection , how can we achieve By using Dynamic Zone Visibility .

[@techianshi]

Set the parameter to TRUE when all is selected then ALL will be displayed

[@aashis1318]

Hi Anshi, so for this implementation.for the right hand side container charts... i want their respective legends to also show up below them with the selection on pie is made. can you please advice

[@techianshi]

Hi Ayesha
If I understand your question correctly you just want to move the legend below the pie- If yes then please add in a new container that is outside this show hide container and then you can add the legends in that same container how we are doing it on the top
Thanks!!

[@sulekhadey8769]

I need an urgent help regarding pop up dashboard.. Please help

[@Tableau-Enthusiast-Jyoti]

Thank you, Anshi. I created a parameter & relevant calculations and am able to control the dynamic zone visibility. However, I want to be able to run this as a parameter action by clicking on the relevant BAN to show/hide the relevant sheet. I am unable to do so. Is there a way you can help me troubleshoot this?

[@techianshi]

Hey Jyoti my 2nd example actually does the same. You can definitely follow along on the video, if still u face issues feel free to ping me on Linkedin

[@Tableau-Enthusiast-Jyoti]

@@techianshi Thank you for your quick response. I did watch the 2nd example and was able to replicate it at one place where I also created shape buttons. However, I am unable to replicate it for my KPI BANs. It seems because there is nothing to pick from for the source field when I create the parameter action. I sent you a request on linkedIn. Once you accept it, I can message you the screenshots. Greatly appreciate your help, Ansula.

[@techianshi]

Sure sounds good 👍

[@YOGA_WITH_ANA]

Do you know how to make changing of chart types without a clipboard? I do not know to rely on a local Excel file based on which clipboard was created. Thank you for the answer!

[@techianshi]

@yoga_with_ana you can also use url to show images, if you provide the link to the images those will load on the go instead of clipboard images

[@vatikasigh5477]

Hello Ma’am..How to revert back to all three charts in 3 rd example when i am not selecting any segment of pie?

[@techianshi]

A workaround that I can think of Vatika is, you can create a duplicate of the sheets and bring in total 6 sheets on the dashboard in 2 different containers that are regulated by a boolean value, you hide the 3 that you want to be defaulted when someone clicks on the chart, and use dynamic zone visibility boolean calculation for the entire container to show the 3 sheets by default otherwise

[@achusridhar1187]

Hi Anshi, let me know whether this feature improves performance of dashboards

[@techianshi]

Yes this is definitely faster than using the parameters and then creating calculated fields over it

[@achusridhar1187]

@@techianshi thanks Anshi. Anyway we need parameters right for this dynamic zone visibility? I have 7 regions to select from dropdown which i have as a list in parameters.

[@techianshi]

@@achusridhar1187 yes but here you need not create calculations over these parameter values

[@santhosh16081990]

But it has a bug.
If you are using this feature..extract schedule is failing in the tableau server.

[@techianshi]

Extract schedules will never fail due to any feature failures, it will only fail when there is a connection or data issue @santosh16081990

[@naveent1793]

How to swap 8 sheets in a container using buttons in Tableau Dashboard

[@techianshi]

Naveen you can follow the 2nd example in this video, you have to do the same things instead of 3 swap sheets you will do for 8 instead, for this you will have to create a parameter with those 8 sheets name and then create calculations for each of them and use them in the Dynamic zone visibility layout to swap

[@naveent1793]

@@techianshi Hi Anshi Thanks for the reply , I am using 2021.3 in that case I can not see Dynamic zone option do I need to follow old approach, but the sheets are not occupying entire space in a container if put all 8 sheets in a single container

[@techianshi]

Hey Naveen as if u are using anything before 2022.3 this feature is not available so u can’t use this rather u need to use the traditional sheet swapping.. you will need to hide all the headers and also from the format pane remove any inner/ outer padding and make it 0 otherwise the sheets will not fill up properly in the allotted space
