Beyond Maps: Building Custom Tableau Visualizations with Mark Layers
July 8 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
About the Event
Mark Layers aren’t just for maps. They turn Tableau’s flat geo grid into a flexible canvas for building custom, high performing, single-sheet visualizations.
In this session, you’ll learn the building blocks behind Mark Layers, then create two examples. We’ll begin with a simple donut chart and finish with a sales actual-to-budget view with barcode-style layering.
Come join the fun!
