Second, this article assumes you have some knowledge of Tables, PivotTables, and Charts in Excel.First, thank you to Marsha for having this question and inspiring this Byte!.Is it possible to create a PivotChart pie chart that can be filtered to show only the percent of the item selected? Here is one solution for that question (and spoiler alert, it is technically not a PivotChart). Note: Pie charts can also be used as a mark type in a visualization.įor more information, see Pie mark.A fantastic question came up during last week’s open lab. For more information, see Actions and Dashboards. You can make a pie chart interactive in a dashboard. If you don't see labels, press Ctrl + Shift + B (press ñ + z + B on a Mac) to make sure most of the individual labels are visible. Add labels by dragging the Sub-Category dimension from the Data pane to Label on the Marks card.To make the chart bigger, hold down Ctrl + Shift (hold down ñ + z on a Mac) and press B several times.

Aggregate fields, such as Profit Ratio, don't contribute to those requirements. Pie charts require at least one or more dimensions and one or two measures. Click Show Me on the toolbar, then select the pie chart type.By default, Tableau displays a bar chart. Tableau aggregates the Sales measure as a sum. Drag the Sales measure to Columns and drag the Sub-Category dimension to Rows.
