Tableau Updated TDS-C01 Exam Questions and Answers by caoimhe

To assign a color to marks in the view, do the following:

From the Data pane, drag a field to Color on the Marks card.

Tableau applies different colors to marks based on the field’s values and members. For example, if you drop a discrete field (a blue field), such as Category, on Color, the marks in the view are broken out by category, and each category is assigned a color.

If you drop a continuous field, such as SUM(sales), on Color, each mark in the view is colored based on its sales value.

Your Tableau Desktop Specialist exam will be based on the 2020.1 version.

Set controls are a new feature introduced in the 2020.2 version, and hence is the correct answer - it is not a part of 2020.1

For the 2020.1 version the new features were:

1) Viz animations:

Viz animations help you see and understand your changing data. It’s easy to track the logical steps behind data’s evolution and tell powerful data stories. Sorting, filtering, adding fields, and other actions will now smoothly animate your visualizations. Choose whether to turn Viz Animations on or off, and decide how you’d best like to apply animations to your new workbooks.

2) Dynamic Parameters:

Say goodbye to republishing workbooks with parameters every time the underlying data changes. Set your parameter once, and Tableau will automatically update the parameter’s list of values every time someone opens the workbook.

3) Buffer Calculations:

Buffer calculations allow you to visualize the distance around point locations. Give Tableau three parameters—location, distance, and a unit of measure—and a buffer, or boundary is instantly created. Answering complex spatial questions becomes easier than ever before—visualize what properties are within 200 meters of a proposed transit site, or how many competitors’ stores are within 1 mile of their store, and more.

The LATEST Tableau Desktop Sepcialist exam blueprint now requires you to know some basics about animations as well!

NOTE: Animations are DISABLED by default and must be manually enabled.

You can also reset all settings to default by clickin on 'Reset All'

According to the Tableau Desktop Specialist Exam Guide, city, country, and airport are three geographic roles that you can assign to a field. Address and time zone are not geographic roles in Tableau.
