Formatting is a crucial a part of both your analysis and presentation. you’ll format almost everything you see on a worksheet including the fonts, shading, alignment, borders, and graph lines. for instance , during a text table you’ll want to feature banded shading to assist you visually separate consecutive groups of rows or columns. during a scatter view with reference lines you’ll want to vary the road thickness and color. All of those settings are often changed using the Format window.

Most often you’ll want to specify format settings for the whole worksheet, all rows, or all columns. However, Tableau also allows you to format individual parts of the deem well. for instance , you’ll format specific fields, resize the cells and therefore the table, and edit individual axes.
