FAQ+A

Why does the Publications Dashboard get cut off on smaller screens?

When I view the publications dashboard on my laptop or mobile device, it gets cut off and I can't view the entire page. Why isn't it responsive so it can adjust to different size devices? 


Answer

The dashboard template used for the Publications Dashboard in Tableau is designed with a fixed width and optimized for a larger screen size, and may not display the entire report on a smaller screen or device. The main reasons for using a fixed width are that it helps the dashboard load faster (due to caching) and provides a set location for each part of the dashboard, with no risk of overlap. We recommend using it on a larger laptop or desktop monitor for the best experience.
