Showing and hiding columns
Right-click a column header in the table visualization to hide it. Hidden columns can be restored from the Fields section of the configuration panel. You can also hide columns from the column options menu (the three-dot menu on each column header).Reordering columns
Drag a column header to reorder columns. Dimensions and measures can be interspersed freely when no pivot is active.Pivots
Pivoting a dimension turns its unique values into columns, creating a cross-tab view. Drag a dimension to the Pivot columns drop zone in the Fields section to pivot it. Pivot behavior:- Pivot columns can be sorted by clicking the column header, including the totals column.
- Pivot columns can also be sorted by row values — click a row number to sort by that row, including the totals row.
- Pivoted columns can be hidden, but hiding is indexed to the specific value (e.g. hiding
status: returned), not position.
Table options
The Table tab in the configuration panel controls layout and display settings:| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Column width | Stretch fills the full table width; Fixed keeps column widths constant regardless of tile size |
| Header text | Controls whether long column headers truncate or wrap to the next line |
| View names | When enabled, the view/cube name is shown in the column header |
| Row numbers | Adds a row number column on the left |
| Group dimensions | Groups multiple dimensions per row into a collapsible section for subtotaling |
Column field options
Click the dropdown arrow on any field in the Fields section to configure it:| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Label | Override the column header text |
| Alignment | Left, center, or right |
| Word wrap | Allow cell content to wrap to multiple lines |
| Hide | Show or hide the column |
Display tab — showing columns as links, images, or bars
By default, columns display their raw value. The Display tab for each field lets you change this:Links
Display a field’s value as a clickable hyperlink. To create dynamic per-row links:- Add a calculated field that produces a URL — for example:
- In the table visualization, hide the calculated field column.
- In the Display tab for the field you want to link, set Display as to Link and select the hidden URL field as the source.
Images
Display a field as an image by setting Display as to Image. Configure height and width. To make the image a link, check Link image and set the Link URL. The URL must be publicly accessible without authentication.Inline bars
Display a numeric column as a proportional in-cell bar. In the column’s per-column section on the Style tab, use the Display as control to add a bar. Each bar’s length reflects the value’s magnitude within the column’s range.| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Display as | Choose Value, Bar, or both. Checking Bar reveals the bar options below; keeping Value checked shows the number alongside the bar (uncheck it for a bar-only cell). |
| Positive bar color | Fill color for non-negative bars |
| Negative bar color | Fill color for negative bars (used when the column contains both positive and negative values) |
| Bar scale | Auto anchors each bar at zero and scales to the column’s largest value, so even the smallest value still shows a bar; Manual scales against the bounds you set |
| Lower / Higher bound | The minimum and maximum (in the column’s raw units) used when Bar scale is Manual. Pre-filled to match the Auto range, so switching modes doesn’t shift the bars. |
Style options
The Style tab controls the visual appearance of the table:| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Row numbers | Show or hide the row number column |
| Row banding | Alternates row background between white and a secondary color |
| Font size | Adjust size independently for Headers, Values, and Totals |
| Description | Show a description below the table title |
Colors
Set background and text colors for table elements:- Table headers (background + text)
- Values (background + text)
- Banding (background)
- Hover state
- Totals row
Conditional formatting
The Conditional formatting tab applies cell or row styling based on conditions you define. Configure:- The field to evaluate
- The condition (e.g. greater than, contains, is null)
- The styling to apply when the condition is met (background color, text color)
Color scale
A color scale (heat map) tints each cell of a numeric column with a gradient based on where its value falls in the column’s range. It is a rule type in the Formatting tab, alongside conditional formatting — switch a rule between Conditional formatting and Color scale with the Type selector inside the rule. To add one quickly, open the menu next to Add rule and pick a color-scale preset:- Outstanding values — a two-color scale that highlights the highest values.
- Divergent values — a three-color scale that distinguishes low, middle, and high values.
- Traffic light gradient — a red–yellow–green three-color scale.
- Start (low end) — anchored at the column Minimum by default, or a custom Number or Percentile.
- Center (optional middle) — Disabled by default, which produces a two-color gradient. Enable it for a three-color gradient anchored at the Midpoint, Average, Median, or a custom Number / Percentile.
- End (high end) — anchored at the column Maximum by default, or a custom Number or Percentile.
- Minimum / Maximum — the lowest / highest value in the column.
- Midpoint — the halfway point of the range, i.e.
(minimum + maximum) / 2. Independent of how the values are distributed. - Average — the mean of all values (sensitive to outliers).
- Median — the middle value when sorted (robust to outliers).
- Number — a fixed value you enter.
- Percentile — a value at the given percentile (e.g.
90= the 90th percentile).
