Visual exploration

You can change some of the visualization properties to further analyze the data without making selections or editing the sheet. Some of the things you can change using the visual exploration menu are: sorting of data, coloring by dimension or measure, and how to display labels.

Do the following:

1. When analyzing, hover over the visualization you want to change.
2. Click Ú at the top right of the visualization or right-click on the visualization and select Open exploration menu.
3. Update the properties you want to change.

4. To close the menu and save your changes, click Ú at the top right of the visualization. The changes are saved during this session.

   To save your changes for future sessions (and have them updated in the properties panel), click Keep. This button is only available for unpublished sheets, and for users with rights to edit the sheet.

   Information noteIf you do not click Keep to save the changes or Discard to discard the changes and later click Edit to edit the sheet, you will be prompted to select whether to keep or discard the changes you made when analyzing the sheet.

1. Tap the visualization you want to change to open it in full screen.
2. Tap Ú at the top of the visualization or long-touch on the visualization and select Open exploration menu.
3. Update the properties you want to change.
4. To close the menu and save your changes, tap Ú at the top of the visualization, or long-touch and select Close exploration menu.
