Hello, 

I have edited alias for some of the fields, but they dont not reflect correctly in the dashboard. 

For example: 

This is the customer tier field with edited alias  

However, the customer field result still reflects to the old entry before I edit alias 

After further review: The select a Dimension field does not update 

How to fix the BCG - Select a Dimension to reflect the current Customer field that I just edited alias? 

I dont have the excel (raw) data with me, unfortunately. 

Hi, 

I'd like to raise a client feedback regarding Tableau's native multi-select filter behavior where user is expecting like Excel, where you can search for a value and immediately select it without having to deselect "All" first. 

Scenario is In a Multi-Select Filter where all values are selected by default, when a user enters a keyword into the search box, for example "Ada", Tableau narrows the list of displayed values but retains the All selection state.

The user must then first deselect All before selecting the desired values. 

The client's view is that the search box gives the impression that they are beginning a filtering action, similar to Excel. As a result, users expect to be able to search for a value and immediately select it. 

We have given the client several options based on the current capability of tableau:

• Wildcard filter
• Single value dropdown
• Multi-value custom list

All of which the client has said does not resolve his original concern. 

I understand this appears to be Tableau's intended behavior rather than a defect, I'm unable to find any official Tableau documentation that explains the rationale behind it.

• Filter Data from Your Views - Tableau
• Filter Actions - Tableau

If anyone could share/advise any documented explanation or product guidance on:

• Why the search box only narrows the displayed values rather than updating the selection itself
• The design rationale behind requiring users to deselect All before selecting a subset of values

Thanks 

I have a use case on priority where I am facing issue while downloading an excel file from Tableau Cloud. I am creating some manual sheets and attaching them in the dashboard as a header. Below a particular header, I have 3 sub-headers. When I download the excel, the manually added sheets are not appearing properly as shown in my dashboard because it is added manually so it is not coming in excel, but I tried by adding the created fields in the sheet I am downloading but still it is not coming in a way I want.  Suggest me some possible ways to achieve it.    Regards,  Abhishek Tiwari
