How to highlight an entire row in tableau

Did you know how to highlight a row in a given table in tableau? If not then this tutorial is for you. In one of my previous videos I talked about how to conditionally format the text cell colour or background of a cell within a given table in tableau. Todays tutorial is an extension of it where I am going to talk about another useful tableau technique on how to highlight an entire row in a given table based on selected criteria in tableau

LOVED this tutorial...one question...is it possible to resize the axis/column? I'm applying this filtering to tickets within our internal system here at work, and it would be most valuable to be able to resize meaning shrink, and expand each column.

[@asifbhaihuddani543]

Nice tutorial

[@DataVizCanvas]

Thank you :-)

[@YanithGomez]

¿Sabes cómo se puede resaltar una sola palabra dentro de un texto?

[@DataVizCanvas]

Básicamente, puede dividir la oración en tres partes: antes de la palabra de búsqueda, la palabra que resaltará y después de la palabra
Una vez que tenga esos tres cálculos, introdúzcalos en la marca de texto y luego coloree el cálculo de "la palabra". Espero que ayude
Antes de la palabra de búsqueda:
IF CONTAINS([Descripción]," "+[Cuadro de búsqueda]+" ") //en el medio
O CONTIENE([Descripción],[Cuadro de búsqueda]+" ") Y // al principio
FIND([Descripción],STR([Cuadro de búsqueda]))=1
O CONTIENE([Descripción]," "+[Cuadro de búsqueda]) Y // al final
FIND([Descripción],STR([Cuadro de búsqueda]))+LEN([Cuadro de búsqueda])-1=LEN([Descripción])
DESPUÉS
LEFT([Descripción],FIND([Descripción],STR([Cuadro de búsqueda]))-1)
FINAL
La palabra:
IF NOT(ISNULL([Pre Word]))
DESPUÉS
MID([Descripción]
FIND([Descripción],STR([Cuadro de búsqueda])),
LEN([Cuadro de búsqueda]))
FINAL
Después de la palabra:
IF NOT(ISNULL([Pre Word]))
DESPUÉS
MID([Descripción],
FIND([Descripción],STR([Cuadro de búsqueda]))+LEN([Cuadro de búsqueda]),
LEN([Descripción])-LEN([Palabra])-LEN([Palabra anterior])+2)
FINAL

[@dineshchavan2248]

Thank you sir for great vdo, but how to remove fixed symbol

[@DataVizCanvas]

Hi Dinesh, which fixed symbols you are referring to?

[@vignesh2104]

here is a issue we cant control the width

[@DataVizCanvas]

Yes that's the limitation with this method. It will keep all the columns with same width.

[@firstname4337]

you explained it very well, but my god tableau is a piece of trash software -- so much garbage to go through just to fully highlight a row

[@DataVizCanvas]

Thanks for your feedback. Hope this functionaly will be added in future releases
