0:00Okay, so yesterday I did a demo on Tableau Prep.
0:03Um I showed the editing experience in Tableau Prep.
0:06I can't show the same experience on uh
0:09Tableau web altering.
0:11There's a block on what's considered a mobile device.
0:13So mobile devices can't actually use the web altering setup.
0:17Those options just disappear.
0:18You can see here I'm looking at the
0:20option where the workbook option would be.
0:22It would typically be above the flow option, but I'm not able to do that in web altering.
0:28So unfortunately I can't show you what the editing experience looks like.
0:30Also it wouldn't make sense to mirror my laptop because there
0:34I'd have to use a mass and keyboard so it'd just be like using a really large screen.
0:38That's not really a new experience.
0:40But nevertheless, what I did want to do is show what it's like to interact with the visualization and how that sort of works.
0:46So
0:47Over here I have tablet public and uh one of the nice things I can do in this setup actually is I can just sort of pinch and uh collapse this to show you all the pages I have up.
0:56I have the Tableau website, I have Tableau Cloud, I have Tableau Public, and I have a Viz which I'm going to be showing you a little later on.
1:03So if I go back to Tableau Public.
1:06.
1:06You can see that I'm just on the home page.
1:06.
1:08There's a few things that just don't render quite right.
1:10Again, this is just probably just because of the mobile setup.
1:12But as I keep scrolling down, everything just loads.
1:15And this is just probably Safari doing its job and working quite nicely.
1:19What I wanted to do is just show you the experience of looking at a specific visualization.
1:25And there's one that I think is actually quite good.
1:27I could go to any of these, but generally I posted a screenshot last week of
1:32This one by Lisa Trescott.
1:33So if I go ahead and click on it, you'll see this is a viz about how common your birthday is.
1:39And it's pretty simple.
1:41Pick your birthday and then it tells you how common it is.
1:44um you know uh across the whole range of uh days of the year and so if I'm just on this page very briefly um if I scroll down you can see the rest of the page loads as you would expect now
1:54What I was hoping to have in this experience again is the full screen capability that you sometimes get.
2:00And the bottom right hand corner here you can see that option is not available.
2:03So I can't put this into a full screen setup here in this mobile browser
2:07Again, it's not allowing me to do that.
2:10The other thing I will just call out is that Lisa actually posted a blog post about this.
2:14I've got that open over here.
2:16So
2:16uh if I go ahead and show you the viz here this is the viz in the context of her blog and if I go ahead and close that little uh sort of
2:25uh icon at the top right of that then you can go ahead and read the rest of the blog.
2:29I highly encourage that you do go and read this it's a really really good blog and it talks about the approach and the creative sort of inspiration
2:37that led to this visualization.
2:39And I think it's a really good you know, really good piece of context to understand how really complex visualizations come about on things like Tableau Public, but also in any context
2:49The way you plan it, the way you come up with inspiration, this is just a great blog post in order to be able to do that.
2:54And so I highly encourage people sort of go check this out.
2:58If I go back to the Viz itself, one of the things I can do is I can make this larger.
3:02So let's just go ahead and do that.
3:03And yesterday I said that, you know, the nice thing about the Vision Pro is it really puts the visualization in your space
3:11And as I hover around this, you can already see things flickering.
3:14So those are actually my focal points.
3:16There's been some research done in the past by Tableau on like where your eyes look.
3:21the interesting thing about this is that as you're seeing things flash, that's exactly what's happening with my eyes.
3:26Th th those are the sort of the focal points um that are that are being uh captured.
3:31And it's interesting 'cause you don't realise that your eyes do this all the time.
3:34This is sort of just a
3:35a passive thing, but the Vision Pro really sort of, you know, makes you realise that.
3:38And then the other thing is I noticed in the recording yesterday is that it looks really jittery.
3:42It looks like I'm constantly moving my head.
3:44Again, to me, this looks all perfectly still.
3:47It doesn't look anywhere near as
3:48uh funny but the problem is is that the the camera's on my head and so my brain does a good job of stabilization with my eyes but for you unfortunately the recording doesn't look that stable so it looks a little bit more jittery
4:01uh than you'd expect.
4:02Anyway, we're here with the viz.
4:04I'm gonna pinch to zoom in and you can get this sort of full screen just like that and there we go that's that's gonna have to do
4:10And again, yesterday I said that you know this is a full screen experience.
4:14I was looking for my uh charger, but it's actually right there.
4:17So what we can do is we can uh bring this up
4:20And I can put it here.
4:21Now the reason I'm standing up is because I actually want to set this in a slightly different context.
4:26The thing about presence
4:28is that it's really hard to sort of put that point across without, you know, m talking about, you know, and showing you what that actually really means.
4:36So at the moment I'm in my office, this is my desk, this is sort of my everyday working environment, but
4:42If I start to do the volume dial like this, you'll see the volume dial comes up.
4:46You can see that icon.
4:47But if I look to the right, I can actually gradually fade in another experience.
4:52And now
4:53We're in a completely different place and I can grab this and push it out and now this visualization is massive.
5:00Uh to give you some context, this looks like I'm looking at a you know probably three meter high
5:07wall um and probably five meters wide it's just really really big and if I look around you can see my whole entire environment has completely changed
5:14I'm having to be very conscious of exactly where I am in my room because of course um I can't see anything so I'm gonna stay absolutely still just to keep this you know safe and and reasonable
5:25Now in terms of interacting with this viz um there's a couple of things that are interesting.
5:30Obviously where you look really really matters so if I for example click on September the 9th there you'll see we get the tooltip and it
5:37comes up and if I click on sort of elements in the tool tip nothing will happen but all the interaction you'd expect sort of just happen through other mechanisms.
5:44Let's click on the 35th
5:45uh you'll see a smaller tooltip comes up.
5:47December the 25th, uh the least common birthday makes a lot of sense.
5:50Okay, so that's those are sort of the what I would call the tooltip targets.
5:54When you hover over those this is what you would see but I'm having to click on them to enable them and disable them.
6:00It's kind of
6:00like a really weird metric so what I have to do is find some white space to sort of tap into uh to clear everything on the screen.
6:08Now if we focus on the visualization itself
6:10Again I can do this just by looking at a date.
6:13So let me pick a date first.
6:14I'll pick my birthday, December the 30th.
6:17So for this I think I need to go ahead and click on that.
6:20So if I can just
6:22pick on that you can see I just about managed to put the balloon on that.
6:25December 30 is the 23rd most common birthday with an average of uh 11,932 births
6:31So yeah, that gives you sort of an idea of how that works now.
6:34Here's the interesting thing.
6:36Let me uh bring it closer.
6:38And as I bring it closer, notice that it scales down.
6:41Apple do this thing where
6:43If it's really far away they scale it up and if it's really close they scale it down but it kind of keeps the same relative sort of proportion so now
6:51What is interesting about this is I'm literally right in front of the Viz.
6:54I'm if I come really really close I can see uh the Viz in a lot more detail than I would do.
7:00Now no one sits this close to visualization, but just look how sharp this is
7:04And uh the other thing about this is obviously I can actually scroll down, I can touch the page and I can just I can just use it.
7:11So it's not only that the gestures work really nicely, Apple are doing something to understand where the uh screen is
7:19and what my hands are doing and they're sort of marrying those two worlds together and it means that you can do silly things like I can actually point at a data point in this viz and if it
7:29just works ever so slowly.
7:30Yeah, you can see it worked.
7:31So I I kinda I was going for what is this?
7:34Um I was going for October the twenty seventh, but it got um August the twenty seventh, sorry.
7:38And it got August the twenty eighth.
7:40It's not perfect.
7:41It's a little bit you know
7:42buggy it's not not great but if I go ahead and click on another date let's see here you can see exactly where I'm hovering and if I go ahead and click on that then the yellow balloon goes there so you do get a little bit of an indicator
7:53of what's happening with your finger but again it's not perfect it's not smooth you can obviously use the drop down this is the mobile interface so that will come up so it's gone to March the 10th and then we can go ahead and cue these
8:04uh thing so that tells you something about interaction it's obviously going to be much easier to interact with uh big targets buttons
8:12and dedicated UX or UI elements of the browser rather than relying uh you know generally on sort of what's going on on the canvas.
8:20So that is um one example of oneviz.
8:23Now if I push this further back
8:25We can actually go back to the Tableau Public homepage.
8:29We'll just scroll down.
8:30I'll zoom it in there and then we'll go back.
8:32I'll just click on the logo just to go back to the homepage and show you some other experiences.
8:37If I go ahead and click the current visit of A
8:40by Vinesh Shuresh, um Stadium PopCon Rankings.
8:44Let's go ahead and click on that.
8:46And um you know the visualizations sort of load in the box that they are in Tableau Public but um this is I think it's a scrolling visualization so
8:55As we start to scroll down, um yeah this is pretty cool and it's got a really nice design.
9:00But again you can just see that you know it's it's it's just a completely different experience.
9:04If I bring it in again, um it's just nice to be able to
9:08you know, kind of interact with the visualization and and and and do something.
9:11I think this is exactly what um you know people would expect to do.
9:14If something's so close you'd want to touch it and in a nice way Apple kind of make sure that that interaction works.
9:20Okay.
9:20So
9:21Yeah, that's really it.
9:22There's not much more to it.
9:24I can't show you the editing experience because that's not enabled on mobile devices by Tableau, so unfortunately.
9:30I can't really do much more in this editing experience.
9:33Um Tableau Pulse works.
9:35I can obviously navigate the usual interface as I would
9:39Probably the last thing I'll show you is just look what does uh you know what does what does a dashboard look like?
9:45So let's just show uh sort this by views.
9:47I'll just go to the superstore uh demo dashboard here.
9:50Um
9:51Uh whoopsie daisy, I'm struggling to sort this and click on the word.
9:56Superstore, there we go.
9:58Um
9:58And if we just go to the overview tab and just open this up, again you'll notice that you have um no ability to edit, doesn't sort of come up here at the top.
10:07and I've managed to uh I've managed to interfere with that.
10:11So there's a little bug there.
10:12It's gonna refresh itself.
10:14There we go.
10:14So there's there's Superstore.
10:16Uh nothing radical, nothing sort of crazy wild.
10:19Um but again, uh you know, as I hover over it if I click on a data point
10:22uh the tooltips load and the rest of the visualization kind of does what it's supposed to do.
10:27Clicking and dragging on this would be a little bit wild if I click on some white space here.
10:31If I click and drag it does sort of select and it does, you know
10:35work but again brutally honest that's not a good experience there's no tactile feedback and you know you wouldn't want you wouldn't want to sort of rely on that as a
10:43as a mechanism.
10:44Um the drop downs are just the mobile drop downs so I can you know click and drag these uh sliders.
10:49I'll do this in front of me so you can see.
10:51And the ratio slider here I think is just uh
10:54another slider.
10:55So uh the filters uh we've seen an example of a filter already and this one doesn't seem to want to work there we go it's uh working now
11:03And yeah, it just does what exactly you decide it to do.
11:06If I go to product this is another tab, again, nothing wild.
11:10This is I think a checkbox exercise so if I select central
11:15Then it just goes to that.
11:16If I select East, I think it just toggles to that.
11:19I don't know how I'd select multiple ones.
11:21I think this is supposed to let you select multiple ones, but nope, that's not
11:24It's not gonna let me click and drag, so we'll leave it at that.
11:27So yeah, um not much more to share really about this experience other than the fact that
11:34Um yeah, it works exactly as it would work on your iPad.
11:37There is obviously the Tableau mobile app, so unfortunately if I um
11:42If I if I click uh open in Tableau Mobile, it goes to the Tableau store.
11:47The Tableau Mobile app has not been enabled to work with a Vision Pro.
11:51So even if
11:53I wanted the Tableau mobile pulse sort of interface.
11:56That's not been enabled by Tableau just yet, so um I'm not sure if that's deliberate.
12:00It's probably deliberate.
12:01A lot of developers haven't done the same thing
12:03It's an additional thing to maintain and not many people have it so it doesn't justify it.
12:07Anyway, that's um pretty much it.
12:09Um again I've just sort of done this in one take, not edited this video.
12:13And yeah, uh post this up as is on LinkedIn and YouTube.
