Zoom in into the calculation window:
You know how you zoom in and out in Chrome when you press Ctrl while scrolling with your mouse’s wheel?
Guess what happens in Tableau. Actually, several things may happen:
- Nothing.
- You zoom in/out of your chart, map, graph. Not too exciting…
- Or, MAGiC, you zoom in just inside the calculation box! Fantastic when showing other people what you are typing/what’s inside your calculation. The beauty of this is that it happens almost anywhere you have a window where to type a calculation (in the set or filter condition by formula or top N by formula). Thanks to Pablo for sharing! I had seen it used before, but thought it was some additional program/setting, not something built-in into Tableau.
