The Play Axis feature automates filter selection, allowing users to cycle through values in a chosen category without manually clicking each time. As each item is selected, the report updates dynamically, helping users analyze trends, patterns, and changes in data over time.
This feature is particularly useful for presentations, live dashboards, and data storytelling, where users can focus on data evolution without manual intervention.
When a Facet Filter is added, the Play Axis section becomes available in the Format Pane. Users can enable it to activate Play Axis functionality. When Play Axis is enabled, it iterates through each value in the selected category, applying the filter automatically to update the report.
Play – Begins automatic selection of category values.
Pause – Temporarily stops the selection at the current category value.
Stop – Ends the animation and resets the selection.
