Is there a way to show the menu filter to the user in an embedded dashboard (or chart) ?
I know code ("chart.setFilter") is one option. But, I mean, can the user see the menu that I can see in Atlas charts? In that way, they update filters and see the result in real time.
Thanks in advance.

I expected to use a box and parameter control to show different worksheets in the dashboard. I made sure that I put the displayed chart at first, the hided charts as followed, and show parameter control, but it did not show the control. How can I solve that?
enter image description here
I have a large tableau dashboard including a number of charts and Summary views and attached to these I have a number of multiple value text filters all non calculated fields.
I am trying to improve the update speed and wonder if there is a method of setting these specific filters so that the views update after the full selection is made and the user has toggled off the filter option. Currently the views update each time a option is selected from the tickbox list.
Does anyone know a method of doing this?
Thanks in advance.

Simply click the drop down arrow on the filter menu > go to “customize”, then click “show apply button”.
Abhishek Boorugu answer should work for you Dan. If you want data to be filtered before the dashboard is loaded, try Context Filters. More explanation on the same can be found here
I am a new Tableau user. I have a concept to create one-page dashboard as summary page which contains two main windows. First window is fixed, displaying general information by pie chart. Second window (below) is dynamic, displaying detailed information of clicked pie chart. Every pie chart has different format/ layout of detailed information. Could I visualize the concept using Tableau. Please enlighten me
Yes you can. This is Tableau's bread and butter. Click an item in the dashboard and everything else can be filtered to that item. Look at Dashboard Actions to accomplish this.
I need some help with drill through. I have a main dashboard with high level aggregated data. I need to drill through to a details report I have created with more granular data. The chart type I have used in the dashboard is a CARD, to which it should drill down from. Only thing is when I right click it does not give the drill option. I have added the relevant field into the details report but still no rightclick --> drill through. Any advice would be great. Could this be a limitation with Power BI?
I agree that it's poor form not to have this sort of functionality. I've tried multiple workarounds, using other visualisations without success. The only thing that i can get to work is to have the card, and overlay a button on top of it (making sure that the button is transparent), which links to a bookmark on that page that i want to 'drill through' to.
I would change from the Card visual to a Table visual. After setting the Format properties you can achieve a similar look to a Card. And if you are show the right fields, then you can right-click and drill down.
I have lot many data sources, dashboards and worksheets in one workbook, There are couple of filters on one dashboards, I want to know from dashboard which filter belongs to which worksheet or where this filter exactly belongs to ?
As well please share how to create Global filters and when they are used?
When looking at a dashboard in Desktop, you can click on a worksheet which will select the worksheet and you'll see four icons pop up (usually in top right corner, sometimes top left corner). The last icon is a downward triangle. Click it and you'll see a long menu with options such as Go To Sheet, Duplicate, and Fit. One option is labeled Filters. Click Filters and it opens a submenu of all filterable fields on the worksheet. If a field is being used as a filter in the dashboard, it will show a checkmark next to the field name.
Note that this is an easy way to add and remove filters from a dashboard. But in your case, you are using it to figure out which worksheet is doing the filtering.
Be aware that dashboards can have filter actions so sometimes worksheets will cascade the filter values to other worksheets on the dashboard.
