I'm aware of how to create a dual-axis chart using two different measures for the Y-axis. Is there a way for me to create a dual-axis chart using a same measure but on two different range in the dual-axis? For example, I have a column which contains revenue, I want to create a dual-axis chart where one axis has revenue for Year 2013, and the other with revenue for Year 2014.
Edit: my aim is to create a line chart for revenue Year 2013, and bar chart for revenue Year 2014, on the same chart. See picture below is what I have done to have FY13 and FY14 values for each month and running monthly cumulative.
Now what I wanted to do is to have the two FY13 bar charts to be line charts superimposed on their corresponding FY14 bar charts.
I attach also my Tableau workbook that creates the charts above in the first tab.

Yes, this is possible.
Drop the measure in the row shelf.
Then grab the same measure with Control key pressed and drop it again on the row shelf.
You will have two instance of the same measure on the row shelf.
Right Click the second measure on the row shelf and click dual axis.
Right click the axis on the worksheet and Edit axis to your choice.
Let me know if this solved your problem.
EDIT
Create 2 calculated feild:
If [FY] = "FY13"
then [Value]
end
call it- 2013
and
If [FY] = "FY14"
then [Value]
end
call it- 2014
Then just do as i have done in this image.

I am trying to create a stacked bar chart between 2 dimensions (one being week, other is a string - more below) and 1 measure. I am new to Looker.
But in order to get the stacked bar chart I figure that I need to
Create a pivot
Transpose the data
Create stacked bar chart
I am stuck with step 2 and 3.
The above steps is what I have thought could help me arrive at the visualization I want but would appreciate if there is any other solution for this.
Scenario:
I have a digital marketing data with me, where I am trying to create a visualization on ‘Leads’ generated,
I have 2 dimensions, 1 measure
Lead Created Week - Week on which a lead was created
Reason2 - reason a lead was created or what reason attracted the user most
Leads - count of leads
I have plotted the below visualization where I have created a pivot of week with Reason2 and Lead count under it and have plotted it on a stacked bar chart (as below).
Where each bar is a Reason (X-axis) and each color is the Week dimension, leads (count of leads) is in the Y-axis
Even though this is help what would be helpful is having ‘Week’ on X-axis, ‘Leads’ (count of leads) on Y-axis and ‘Reasons2’ dimension as a legend.
There is also one catch i.e., there are more than 100 distinct values in ‘Reason2’ field but I need to pick on Top 10 Reasons (i.e., the reasons that generated the most leads), which in the above screenshot I have achieved by limiting the display rows to 10 as the measure was already sorted.
I tried to flip around the pivot by having reason in pivot and Week as dimension, but if now the pivot is sorted in alphabetical manner and not by value of measures (screenshot below), I need the top 10 reasons which most leads per week.
How do I achieve the desired visualization of having week on X-axis with leads on Yaxis but only the top 10 Reasons should be generated.
I have two stack chart divided by year and the stack chart is divided by two values. I want to show percentage difference between the year among the values. I have tried using calculated field and dual axis but get stuck after adding one field. Let me attach a snapshot for more clarification. In the image I want to plot below two calculated field in the stack chart as well to show percentage difference between the year.
I built a gantt waterfall chart in tableau to represent sales difference over time. I want to add columns in the beginning and end, to show the total sales before and after the sales difference occurs.

You could do a dual axis to get this, with the ending total value on the second axis... *might need an LOD calc to exclude the slicing dimension for the bar on the one axis.
Or, you could create two sheets and align them side by side on a dashboard to do this.
I am trying to produce a sales chart using only the native Excel features, I am trying to group sales data by month and category. I want my sale types to stack for a monthly total so that I can compare not only total volume, but also track where that volume is coming from. I have been able to group by month using a pivot chart, but I can't figure out how group my categories and display them as discrete parts of the monthly sum. Here is a mock-up of what I am trying to produce: http://i.imgur.com/BCFfwQJ.png
I'm helpless in VBA and SQL, and my coworkers are even worse than me at it, so I need to do this with just the built-in Excel 2010 features.
Set up the data so the months are in the first column, type labels in the first row, values in columns under the respective type, and keep the top left cell blank (above months and left of types). Add another column with the quota label next to the type labels and the quota values next to the type values. Make a stacked column chart from this data, right click on the quota series (which is another stacked column), choose Change Series Chart Type from the pop=up menu, and choose a line chart type.
I'm having trouble creating the following chart in Tableau.
I have data that looks like this:
name date count
a 11/10/2012 2
a 12/10/2012 3
a 13/10/2012 2
b 12/10/2012 6
b 13/10/2012 2
b 14/10/2012 3
c 14/10/2012 2
c 15/10/2012 2
And I want to create a bar chart that has the sum of the count on the y axis and time on the x axis. The width of the bar should be the length of the time, like a Gantt chart. Each name has its own bar. Here is an image that shows what I am after.
The bars should overlap if the times overlap.
I have tried various things in Tableau but haven't really got close.
Is this kind of chart possible in Tableau? If not in 7, will it be in 8? I have heard it makes it possible to create some more complex chart types.
A workbook with data can be found at http://community.tableausoftware.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/188799-12362/Gantt%20over%20time%20with%20summed%20bar.twbx.zip
Thanks for your help,

The trick with Gantt charts in Tableau is to put a calculation on the size shelf that calculates the duration of each bar in units of days. See the example screenshot at Tableau example
You also need a continuous date field on the columns shelf to get a horizontal time axis.
In this example, I also did a few more optional things, such as, turned off aggegation under the analysis menu to get a mark per data row, rather than aggegating them, added a discrete date to the rows shelf to make each bar go on a different line (as long as each bar starts on a different date) and hid the column for that start date.
