Underlying Data of the Dataset

In the Data Pane, when you click , Visual Analytics opens the View Data window that contains the underlying data of your dataset.

...


The Show All fields check box, when selected, shows the underlying data for all dimensions and measures in the data pane for the highlighted data points. When you clear this check box, only the underlying data of the dimensions or measures using which you had built the chart is displayed. 
In the following example, after clearing the check box, the underlying data for Card Type and Profit is displayed. In addition, we have highlighted ColonialVoice, Distinguish, and SuperiorCard data points in the chart view, therefore, Visual Analytics shows the underlying data only for these data points.

View Data Window

The View Data window supports quick filtering, aggregate functions, and multicolumn sorting. Aggregate Functions allows calculation of Count, Count Numbers, Sum, Min, Max, Average, and Standard Deviation functions on the rows that you select in the View Data window.

...

Another option that is available in the View Data window is Preview in Excel () that exports the data to an Excel spreadsheet. Additional options appear on clicking the arrow that is available next to the icon. 


Info

Aggregate Functions, Quick Filtering, or Multi-Column sorting performed in the View Data window do not affect Visual Analytics Charts or Tables.
