It is a game changer indeed, thanks for the explanation. At 10:03 I think you should be able to select hidden containers with Item Hierarchy list on the bottom left side.
Yes!!! I feel like the containers are in the wrong place (drag and drop from Dashboard pane. You should be able to add containers directly on the Layout pane, "Item Hierarchy" section)
Hello Tim ! Thanks for your video. Many many possibilities with this new feature. (It looks like you've forgot to put the link to the public viz into the description ;)
Hi Tim, yet another expertly delivered video that shows a cool feature. Wondered if you'll be creating any more on this feature away from the normal that is being shown. I have one that I can't seem to get to work yet so needing your inspiration 😉...Glyn at NERC
This is the best video I've found on this, yet I still CANNOT get the last step to work. The Parameter Action does not affect the containers :( I've never been so mad at software in my life.
Ah no! Just to check is there a bug in your version of tableau? Occasionally whenever this happens to me I check the release notes for the exact version im using to see if there’s a bug.
Thank you so much TIM! This is amazing. However, Is there a way to have this working using a condition from a calculated field? For example If the customer sells 'Shoes' then the button for 'Shoes' is available but if they don't then ti disappears? I've been trying to use navigation buttons and one of the buttons needs to be hidden in some cases.
Loved this video and thanks for sharing the info. Applied the same logic on date (loads when workbook opens) parameter to check if date selected (from parameter) is max date (from the data) but my calculated filters are not showing up dashboard Layout to choose after clicking 'Control visibility using value'. Please let me know if I am missing wrong or any other work around to dynamically swap the sheets on date parameter if selected date equal to max date to show KPI (if not show other value). Thanks
Hi tim have some doubts in dashboard action can you please resolve the issue actually im redirect from one dashboard to another and same dashboard to another dashboard using open date and close date
Hi Tim, thank you for very good explanation, one question can you elaborate on what these 2 means - Single value. Independent of the viz, meaning the field returns a constant value independent of the structure of the viz, such as a fixed level of detail (LOD) calculation. , in supported field type
Yep you need to drag the sheet to your container AFTER the sheet is in the dashboard, otherwise it deselects the container and does allow you to drop the sheet. Deselection of the container when you start dragging a sheet shouldn't happen, and unfortunately I don't think this is something Tableau would be willing to change (since it's such a narrow use case and there are workarounds)
Have you noticed any impact on the performance by hiding visualizations? Are sql queries still send for that viz or is any data loaded when its hidden?
Hi Tim, Thanks for your video. I face slowness since i have more sheets to swap and need to know whether this dynamic zone visibility solves the performance issue in tableau???
Hey Tim, great video! I haven't quite understood how the 3 boolean fields for each category(second example) were introduced to the viz. Maybe I have missed something?
They weren’t add to the viz. They don’t need to be added. They’re just formulas that compute a single value so can be checked to see whether the zone should be on or off.
Highly recommend you get familiar with UA-cam interface. If you read the description as I said in the video, you can find my example viz which if you download gives you the starting point and data set
Thanks for the video, do you know of any work around for mapping a link for multiple urls but when we click on one link after other it should open in a new window, basically if I have a Dashboard and i have multiple links on it, if i click on one link and then I click on another link it’s opening another link on the same page as the previous link, please let me know of any workaround for this one, Thanks 😊
If you watch Thai video you’ll get the main mechanic. Many other resources online that cover this but I don’t recommend you go that approach. A whole separate dashboard should be exactly that and use the url linking capabilities to send users between dashbaords
Hi Tim, Have you run into any situations where dynamic zone visibility works as it is supposed to in Desktop, but does not work in Tableau Cloud? Is this a bug or do you know if there is a work-around?
How annoying. Do you know the specific issues / is repeatable? Bugs in tableau cloud can be a moving Target. Although the response might be slow, definitely log it with Tableau support. I looked here but saw no mention of known bugs. www.tableau.com/support/known-issues
There’s plenty of resource out there showing how to connect to data sources. You’ll be using the data model or joins so be sure to google those topics. This video is about zone viability. Not related.
Via the The Information Lab in the Uk 🇬🇧 yes. Reach out to us or if it’s not relating to consulting and more around video and training, I have my own company. Reach out on LinkedIn 👍🏾
@@TableauTim , sorry, just my frustration speaking. I can't get the show/hide functionality to work and all the videos are about sheet swapping. Your video shows show/hide using the parameter control, but not when it is triggered by a mark selection on the dashboard. I do appreciate anyone who takes the time to make things easier for others 🙏.
@@marcuscorey5968 I dont think its possible through a mark selection. I'll try and refresh my brain on this there might be trick involved. ua-cam.com/video/K5HDLylEeDQ/v-deo.htmlsi=cjA0vfAsvKPqz7F3 you could maybe change multiple sheet sont he same dahsbaord rather than swapping a dashabord.
Finally!! We need Tableau to implement all the common-sense features folks are wishing for on their user platform.

really curious about how sam parson achieved the almost drill down like zoom!
God this feature is so useful, thank you for this detailed tutorial!
I had to use exactly what you did in the 9 min mark.
Thanks Tim, exactly what I was looking for
Great to see you hear 👋🤩
Excellent tutorial on this new feature!! It is very useful. Thanks Tim.
Great explanation Tim. Thanks!
Thank you Tim! I appreciate this and all your videos very much.
I love your videos!
Thank you for your kind words. Hope to keep bringing more next year and revisiting some old classics to bring them up to date.
Superb explanation. That's why I love this channel so much....❤❤
Hello Tim a faster way of selecting all the sheets when creating a parameter is to select one sheet and then ctrl+A (cmd+A on Mac). Saves Scrolling.
Fantastic! I really enjoy and appreciate your videos.
Thanks you Tableau Tim!
My pleasure!
Loved this! Great way to reveal (and hide) a lot of data as required. Thanks, Tim!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Real nice Explanation with granular level ! With right guidance ✌🏻
this is great! cant wait to see how this develops into more user friendly UX design elements
You and me both!
Thank you bang tim, salam dari indonesia..
Valuable information, thank you so much
Glad it was helpful!
Finally!!!! No more having to do exclusion filters :). Now to get my container skills polished.
I can do that in 10 minutes, here's the video. ua-cam.com/video/96371LvULXM/v-deo.html
@@TableauTim that video was going to be my first stop :)
great demo of this, can't wait to get started with it, if only the version we had at work was up to date! :)

I did indeed. I’ll add that shortly. Thanks for the nudge. I posted it on convo too ;)

thank you for the video! 👍
No more having to create show/hide calculations as filters, guess it kinda saves some time although you still need to create calcs.
This is the best video I've found on this, yet I still CANNOT get the last step to work. The Parameter Action does not affect the containers :( I've never been so mad at software in my life.

Seems like they've heard your grumbles for the last few releases ;)

Hey Tim, great video! I haven't quite understood how the 3 boolean fields for each category(second example) were introduced to the viz. Maybe I have missed something?
They weren’t add to the viz. They don’t need to be added. They’re just formulas that compute a single value so can be checked to see whether the zone should be on or off.
can we switch between the dashboards(which has different data sources) using parameters?
Where is the data or the viz you're using? It's not listed anywhere.
Highly recommend you get familiar with UA-cam interface. If you read the description as I said in the video, you can find my example viz which if you download gives you the starting point and data set

This is a known issue. I submitted an idea now 6 years ago. It’s not possible without at least one new tab opening occasionally
See the issue here community.tableau.com/s/idea/0874T000000HAPRQA4/detail
Hi @TableauTim How we use this Dynamic Zone Visibility to Swap entire Dashboards ?
I have use case . Can you help with any refrence
If you watch Thai video you’ll get the main mechanic. Many other resources online that cover this but I don’t recommend you go that approach. A whole separate dashboard should be exactly that and use the url linking capabilities to send users between dashbaords
Hey Tim, can we swap filters along with the sheets using parameter?currently using version 2021
Not with your version. As the video suggests it’s only that version onwards. 2021 is quite old. Highly recommend at least upgrading to 2022
Hi Tim, Have you run into any situations where dynamic zone visibility works as it is supposed to in Desktop, but does not work in Tableau Cloud? Is this a bug or do you know if there is a work-around?

@@TableauTim Thanks Tim, will do. It has been very inconsistent - sometimes it works in the Cloud, but not 100% of the time.
What if I don't want to hide the title?
sir. want to integrate 3 db data , which is on 3 different server ip...how to write custom sql ...with 3 servers
There’s plenty of resource out there showing how to connect to data sources. You’ll be using the data model or joins so be sure to google those topics. This video is about zone viability. Not related.
How is your question relevant to this topic? What you’re asking is a basic relationship join when you load the data into Tableau
Tim do you do contract work?
Via the The Information Lab in the Uk 🇬🇧 yes. Reach out to us or if it’s not relating to consulting and more around video and training, I have my own company. Reach out on LinkedIn 👍🏾
@@TableauTim Thank you very much. Found it and will connect on Linkedin.
I simply refuse to do hacky workarounds these days
No more having to create separate titles every time to make the spacing work.
worthless, way too fast
