A guest post from me today on Chris Love’s excellent Good to Great series. Sorting in Tableau is very easy for simple chart types, however when multiple dimensions are brought into play it is not always obvious how to get the desired results from a sort.This video came about as a result of a piece of work I was doing where I needed to be able to dynamically sort a Stacked Bar Chart in descending order of size, by the dimension member selected in a drop down. I also wanted to ensure that the selected dimension was brought to the left in the view to ensure clarity.I hope the video helps!https://www.youtube.com/embed/0-6vaBs_zuk
