Suppose you have a bar chart. When we group by labels in a view, which of the following happens?

Nothing changes in the view, but a group is created in the Dimensions shelf.

The colours of the members selected are now the same, and different for the rest of the members.

Trick question! It is not possible to group by labels.
A new mark (bar) is created, which consolidates all members of the group.
A new mark (bar) is created, which consolidates all members of the group.
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

*Very important question*

If we select the labels in the view and then group, a new consolidated mark is created - in our case bar since we are talking about a bar chart in the question. See below:

Tableau TDS-C01 image Question 141 explanation 76484 09232024004744000000

Then on grouping, a new bar is created, and the colour of all bars remain the same.

Had we grouped by choosing the marks instead of the labels, the following would be the result:

From the Analytics pane, drag a model to Color on the Marks card.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

To assign a color to marks in the view, do the following:

From the Data pane, drag a field to Color on the Marks card.

Tableau applies different colors to marks based on the field's values and members. For example, if you drop a discrete field (a blue field), such as Category, on Color, the marks in the view are broken out by category, and each category is assigned a color.

If you drop a continuous field, such as SUM(sales), on Color, each mark in the view is colored based on its sales value.

Which of the following calculations DO NOT need a quick table calculation?

Variance
Variance
Rank
Rank
Moving Average
Moving Average
Standard Deviation
Standard Deviation
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

For Standard Deviation and Variance, we don't need to use quick table calculations, since they are available by default. See below:

Tableau TDS-C01 image Question 144 explanation 76487 09232024004744000000

However, as seen in the types of quick table calculations available in Tableau, Rank and Moving Average belong to only this category.

Are animations enabled by default in Tableau?

No
No
Yes
Yes
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

No, by default, animations are not enabled in Tableau.

We can animate visualizations to better highlight changing patterns in your data, reveal spikes and outliers, and see how data points cluster and separate.

Animations visually transition between filter, sort, and zoom settings, different pages, and changes to filter, parameter, and set actions. As visualizations animate in response to these changes, viewers can more clearly see how data differs, helping them make better informed decisions.

When you author animations, you can choose between two different styles: simultaneous or sequential. Here are examples of each type.

1) Simultaneous animations

The default simultaneous animations are faster and work well when showing value changes in simpler charts and dashboards.

Tableau TDS-C01 image Question 145 explanation 76488 09232024004744000000

2) Sequential animations

Sequential animations take more time but make complex changes clearer by presenting them step-by-step.

Tableau TDS-C01 image Question 145 explanation 76488 09232024004744000000

To Animate visualizations in a workbook:

1) Choose Format > Animations.

2) If you want to animate every sheet, under Workbook Default, click On. Then do the following:

For Duration, choose a preset, or specify a custom duration of up to 10 seconds.

For Style, choose Simultaneous to play all animations at once or Sequential to fade out marks, move and sort them, and then fade them in.

3) To override workbook defaults for a particular sheet, change the settings under Selected Sheet.

To create a local copy of a subset or entire data set that you can use to share data with others, when you need to work offline, and improve performance.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The following are the official definitions from the Tableau documentation for the various file types:

1) .tds (Tableau Data Source) - To not contain the actual data but rather the information necessary to connect to the actual data as well as any modifications you've made on top of the actual data such as changing default properties, creating calculated fields etc. (CORRECT ANSWER)

2) .twbx ( Tableau packaged workbook) - To create a single zip file that contains a workbook along with any supporting local file data and background images. This is great for sharing your work with others who don't have access to the original data.

3) Extract (.hyper or .tde) -- To create a local copy of a subset or entire data set that you can use to share data with others, when you need to work offline, and improve performance.

3) (.twb) Workbooks -- To hold one or more worksheets, plus zero or more dashboards and stories.

Which of the following is a compelling reason to export a sheet in Tableau to a PDF?

If we want a static view of the visualisation.
If we want a static view of the visualisation.
If we want to use filters in the visualisation.
If we want to use filters in the visualisation.
If we want to interact with the visualisation.
If we want to interact with the visualisation.
If we want to dynamically enter parameters to the visualisation.
If we want to dynamically enter parameters to the visualisation.
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Exporting the visualisation gives us a static view of the visualisation.

It is NOT possible to interact with it, use filters, or dynamically enter anything in a visualisation exported PDF.

In Tableau Desktop, you can save views as PDF files rather than printing them as hard copies. You do not need to have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer.

When you print an individual sheet to PDF, filters in the view are not included. To show filters, create a dashboard containing the sheet and export the dashboard to PDF. (IMPORTANT)
