Description
--------------------
In this video, I do a long-overdue update to my video in 2014 on layout containers in Tableau Desktop. I cover the basics, how to avoid getting confused and making sure they behave the way you expect as well as explaining the difference between tiled and floating layouts and how to switch between the two. -----

This is extremely helpful because container management is often overlooked in favor of other functionalities. I was designing a dashboard using DZV with vertical containers and each containing grouped horizontal containers. I've been struggling with this for a while simply because I didn't know some basic things. Thank you for your video; it has been very helpful in understanding how they work.
Your welcome. I hope tableau improve this in the future
Thanks for this. Most tutorials I've watched just throw in the containers with explaining what's happening. This one gives a lot more insight - making the whole thing easier to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
I have been struggling to understand how to arrange my charts and how the containers work. Your video was extremely helpful in clarifying these concepts. Thank you very much for this great resource 👏👏
Very straightforward and focused tutorial. Concise explanations, no fillers, no background and side story-telling stories. Love it. THANKS for this
Such an amazing introduction to such an important yet easily overlooked concept. Keep up the amazing work Tim!
Thanks for explaining it so nicely Tim! Definitely one of the most important topics yet always overlooked !
This was really helpful & changed my view on containers which I earlier thought they are a big headache and very confusing.
Thanks a lot Tim
Please keep sharing such videos.
Thank you, your explanations and examples are easy to understand because it’s so clear and concise.
Wow! Still there are tons of things I don't know about Tableau. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!

2 People want to use Microsoft BI. A pity really. I appreciate the video and appreciate how it increased my understanding. I really like that you kept it to 10 minutes. When I started my search for content that was the key point of the query. I subscribed and look forward to new content. Thank you.

Omg I had no idea I could play Legos in tableau! This is awesome. Thank you. Now I just need to master LODs so my tiles make sense. Good thing you have an amazing playlist just for that topic.
Btw would love to see you expand on LODs by just showing more examples. Specifically, I want to combine maps and LOD calculations at a zip code lvl.
Thanks for the suggestion. More LOD examples is something I have on the to do list.
Got cleared now..thank you
That was fantastic. I learned a lot in 10ish minutes.

I'm having trouble shading the outer padding space in one of my dashboards. Do you have a video for how to adjust the outer padding shading?
You cant shade the outer padding. Just the background and obect colour border and the object itself.
@@TableauTim Thanks Tim! Does that mean if outer padding is used the outer padding space will always be white? Or is there a way to color it the same as the rest of the dashboard area?

Hi, thanks for the video. It's very helpful! I'm a beginner and don't really know what happened here - some filters I need to put on the same page were in horizontal and some were in tile option; I learned this from "select container: horizontal" (or tile). Is there a way I can change from horizontal to tile (or the opposite way)? I tried to drag a filter (tile) and drop it in the middle of other filters (horizontal) to make everything in a horizontal form. Also, I tried dragging and dropping on the Item hierarchy in Layout on the left panel. None of them worked out. Do you have any clue what went wrong?
Hi Tim... Can't we fix width and height for tailed containers.. I've done a work around to add floating containers first, format custom width and height, added tiled vertical containers into the already customized floating containers and lastly adding viz..
One big question, do I need to have every kpi in a single sheet, to be able to drag and drop it into a dashboard as a tile? Because ypu have like Profits and Sales in the sheets list
No google “kpi dashboard in tableau” to see examples
hello, how do i add a horizontal scroll bar for worksheet?
if you set the sheet width to be larger than the dashboard you should get a scroll bar. If not if you set the dahsboard to be ultrawide and then put it insde a div container thats smaller, the scrollbar will appear. Her'es an example public.tableau.com/views/The12LaboursofHeracles/The12LaboursofHeracles?:language=en&:display_count=y&publish=yes&:origin=viz_share_link:showVizHome=no

just covered the floating part. very not professional although did try to make it professional
No-one wants to spend more than 5-6 minutes - so I'll spend 1:20 on intro.....lols
still grateful though :) xx
