Which of the following points are True about Viz Animations?

  1. Sequential animations take more time but make complex changes clearer by presenting them step-by-step

All of the given options are true except - Animations work well with maps, polygons, and density marks in web browsers.

From the official documentation:





As seen above, we can either turn the animations for the entire workbook (upper red box), or only for the current sheet ( lower red box )

1) Simultaneous animations

The default simultaneous animations are faster and work well when showing value changes in simpler charts and dashboards.





2) Sequential animations
Sequential animations take more time but make complex changes clearer by presenting them step- by-step.

True or False: Enabling any other type of sort (Field, alphabetic, or Nested) clears the manual sort we create.

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

This is true. a Manual Sort lets you select a value and move it to the desired position, either by dragging it in the list or using the arrows to the right.

However, as soon as you choose some other type of sort - be it field, nested, or alphabetic, our custom created manual sort gets deleted/cleared.

When you connect to a new data source, all worksheets that previously referred to the original data source now refer to the new data source. If the new data source does not have the same field names as the original workbook, the fields are marked with an exclamation point



.
Which feature helps us fix this issue?

  1. Replace Reference
  2. Fix Metadata
  3. Renaming
  4. Aliases

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Replace


Reference:

When you successfully connect to a new data source, all worksheets in the workbook that previously referred to the original data source now refer to the new data source. If the new data source does not have the same field names as the original workbook, the fields become invalid and are marked



with an exclamation point    . You can quickly resolve the problem by replacing the field's references.
For example, say you have a workbook connected to a data source that contains a Customer Name field. Then you edit the data source to point to a new data source that has all the same data but instead of Customer Name, the field name has been changed to Name. The Customer Name field remains in the Data pane but is marked as invalid. To make the field valid, you can replace the references, which means you can map the invalid field to a valid field in the new data source (for example, Customer Name corresponds to Name).
