Tableau 2020.2 Set controls full built out example

I'll rebuild this interactive London house price map from scratch so you can see exactly how 2020.2 set controls work end to end.

Part ofWhat's new in Tableau 2020.2
  • Tableau 2020.2 lets you expose a set as a filter-like control by adding it to the filter shelf and choosing 'show in and out of set', so users can change set membership from a drop-down rather than clicking the chart.
  • To compare a selection against everything else, build an EXCLUDE LOD that excludes the set dimension, then subtract it from the plain average to get a difference-from-average measure.
  • Spatial data won't always be recognised automatically, so assign a geographic role (postcode) to the out code field and switch the marks card to a map to render polygons.
  • A 'highlight to self' action is a handy hack to stop set actions fading out the rest of the visualisation, keeping context visible while you select.
  • Set actions and set controls are applied at the dashboard level, not on individual worksheets, so build the worksheet first then add the change-set-values action.
