Attribute as column header in table
- 1 year ago
Hi joshua1990
In a standard table visual, there is no concept of “row vs column vs value” — each field is simply displayed as a column in the order it’s added. It doesn’t support pivot-like layouts.
However, what you're describing — Date as row, Week as column header, and Value in the cells — is exactly what the Matrix visual is designed for. The Matrix provides a pivot-style layout where you can define rows, columns, and values.
So if your goal is to display data in that structure, the Matrix visual is the right choice.
Like in my example of months that can be weeks in your case
If there’s a specific reason the Matrix doesn’t work for you, feel free to share a sample or mockup, and clarify what limitation you're encountering — we might be able to suggest an alternative workaround.
