Custom Views

All changes you make to the SuperTables layout can either be stored in the workbook settings (no personal views possible) or in a special dedicated parameter for storing the SaveState of your SuperTable. When using a Parameter to store the Layout Settings you enable your dashboard users to create personal/private views on your published dashboards (Tableau Server / Tableau Online). Please make sure you use a dedicated parameter per SuperTables instance in your workbook, since parameters are global within a workbook. Using the same parameter twice in one workbook might lead to unexpected results! The parameter to store your SuperTables settings can be created by:

  • Creating a new parameter

  • Using a logical name like “PM Savestate Salesdashboard”

  • Setting the “Data type” to: String

  • Empty the “Current value”

  • Setting the option “All” for the “Allowable values

  • Save/Store your parameter

  • Head to the Appearance tab of your SuperTables configuration pane and select the new parameter from the dropdown

Custom Views

Create your own custom views of SuperTables! Each user can create their own unique view of their dashboard containing SuperTables. Wish to just see a compact view, sales view or a customer only view? Save as many views as you wish to be easily accessible every time you log in. You can make any view your default as well as making them available for your team!
