Can Tableau do conditional formatting like Excel?
I’ve heard that refrain many times over the years when teaching Tableau.
A lot of people will tell you that it’s not possible. However, they’re wrong! It might take a little creativity, but it can be done! Check out the video below to learn how you can select and conditionally format cells in a Tableau highlight table.
You can download the example workbook built during the demo on Tableau Public here!
