Tableau Tip Tuesday: Using Discrete & Continuous Colors on One Map

One of the things I really love about teaching at The Data School is the opportunity I get to learn from them. Because really, no one learns more than the teacher.

A couple weeks ago, Andrew Lehm Brian Scally asked me how he could make one State a single color while having all of the others based on a measure. Basically, we wanted to be able to combine discrete and continuous colors on a single map.

This is quite simple if you know how to layer maps and take advantage of multiple marks cards. I show you how to do just that in this week's tip.

Enjoy!
