In real time, we’ll leverage 16 aesthetic decisions to transform a lackluster dashboard into a striking composition. As we build in Tableau, we’ll pinpoint when to use each technique and how it enhances the user’s experience. These before and after transformations will illustrate how powerfully design can improve the functionality of our dashboards. By the end of this session, you’ll be able to use the full power of the formatting pane, elevate default designs into stunning visualizations, create effective artistic dashboard layouts, and design a positive initial and long-term experience for your audience.
