I am trying to create a dashboard with two views—a map divided into regions, where a user can select a region and then be directed to a table (second view) with data just for that region. I've attached mock-up data as an example.

 

I am having a few issues that I cannot resolve and am hoping to get help with, as described below:

1.     I used a placeholder method to create a text table with three columns, one of which includes a hyperlink. I set up a URL action so that the user can navigate to a webpage by clicking on the hyperlink. However, that action applies to all columns in the table, so if I click on data in the "Organization" or "Group" columns, I am also directed to the webpage. Is there a way to make the URL action work only when a user clicks on a hyperlink in the "Webpage" column?

2.     My second question is about formatting text in the column "Organization." I played with different axis start and end values, but I end up with text that is aligned left in some rows, centered in others, and right-aligned in others. If I use an automatic range of values, the beginning of the text is cut off. Is it possible to left align text in all rows and make the name of the organization fully visible to the user?

3.     Finally, is it possible to have a separate tooltip for different groups in the Group column?

 

Thank you

    When you click the Label button on the Marks card, you are altering the alignment of the label, relative to the Mark, so in the case of a bar, right alignment will be at the right hand end of a horizoWhen you click the Label button on the Marks card, you are altering the alignment of the label, relative to the Mark, so in the case of a bar, right alignment will be at the right hand end of a horizontal bar, left alignment will be at the base of the bar.

    imageWhen you edit the text in the label, the alignment applies to the text as a block, so if you have multiple lines and have centred text, then you could have centred text displayed at the right hand end of a bar. Since labels are commonly one line, this setting becomes less obvious, because the label just takes up the space it needs and left and right text alignment are largely indistinguishable.
