Tableau table hides categories with no data - how to prevent?

Tags:

tableau-api

I have Tableau report where I am showing data by category in columns.

The table shows all columns when there is no filter on data. But when filter is applied, some of the categories do not have data, so table shrinks, hiding columns without data

Is there a way to always show columns regardless of data or not in that column?

Please see screenshots below.

How do I force show dimension labels even if there are no values?

There is a very easy feature within Tableau which enables you to do so. Showing all values of a dimension even if there is NO data (NULL) attached to it! Just navigate yourself to Analysis > Table Layout > Show Empty Columns/Rows at the top of your screen.

How do you hide empty values in Tableau?

Right-click on the Measure pill and select Format. In the format window, go to Pane and hopefully the Special Values will be there. Select Hide in the Special Values section of the pane to hide the Null values.
