What are two outcomes when you drag a continuous date value to the Rows shelf? Choose two,
Correct Answer:AC
Dragging a continuous date value to the Rows shelf in Tableau results in a green pill on the Rows shelf, indicating a continuous field. It also results in a quantitative axis being displayed on the visualization. Continuous fields are used to create axes on charts and can represent a range of values smoothly. This is opposed to discrete date values, which would be represented by a blue pill and typically show headers or labels rather than a continuous axis.
Which of the following is a compelling reason to export a sheet in Tableau to a PDF?
Correct Answer:A
Exporting the visualisation gives us a static view of the visualisation.
It is NOT possible to interact with it, use filters, or dynamically enter anything in a visualisation exported PDF.
In Tableau Desktop, you can save views as PDF files rather than printing them as hard copies. You do not need to have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer.
When you print an individual sheet to PDF, filters in the view are not included. To show filters, create a dashboard containing the sheet and export the dashboard to PDF. (IMPORTANT)
