Live demo · Dumbbell Chart

Dumbbell Chart, on a real Tableau dashboard.

This is Pradeep Kumar G's Sample Superstore dashboard, live from Tableau Public. The Dumbbell replaces the sub-category heatmap: last year and this year per sub-category, joined by the gap. Press a year button and every gap moves.

Loading the dashboard from Tableau Public…

Why it sits on top of the dashboard here: Tableau Public only loads extensions on Tableau's trusted list, so this page loads Dumbbell Chart itself and connects it to the embedded dashboard through the Tableau Embedding API. Same extension, same calls, the dashboard's own data. In your own Tableau Desktop, Server or Cloud you add it to the dashboard like any other extension. Dashboard by Pradeep Kumar G on Tableau Public.
