Tableau bar chart looks different in worksheet vs. dashboard

Trying to make a cute little dual axis line and bar chart, time is continuous on x axis, value on y axis. For some visual flair (formatting still being worked on) I wanted to make banded columns to show months, which are not calendar months (454 system) and are therefore variable lengths of time.



I got it functionally looking how I wanted to on the worksheet. When dragged to a dashboard, even after a ridiculous amount of resizing, I get these weird lines. When I change the size of it, the lines change places.



Anyone have tips on getting these two graphs to look the same?



Worksheet



Dashboard






tableau

  • I have found a workaround for the time being. I changed the mark type to Polygon, which had a similar effect, but caused the shape of the shaded area to be slightly sloped. This bothered me. So instead of having my calculated field use 1s and 0s to determine the area to shade, I used 100s and 0s with a fixed y axis of 0 to 0.1. This made the slope so slight that it looks like a straight line.

What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

Image
0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?

up vote 1 down vote favorite I am using openpyxl for parsing .xlsm files, and pytest for testing. When I open a file, I get the: OpenPyxl -> UserWarning: Data Validation extension is not supported and will be removed That is not really a problem bcs. program works and I can't change the .xlsm file to fix that. But... When I run pytest with something like: def test_wrong_file_format(): assert check_excel(open_excel('file.xlsm')) == True I will get the warning i mentioned altought check_excel(open_excel('file.xlsm')) returns True and the test should suceed... Is there a nice way to tell the pytest that "It's not a bug it's a feature" and tests should pass even when they get this warning? Is there other way than using something like: with pytest.warns(UserWarning): ...
