      Hi Tableau friends,

      I saw the attached picture from a tableau website (How to Visualize Sentiment and Inclination | Tableau Software ) and I think it's pretty cool to calculate the sum of negative responses and positive responses on a likert chart. But there's no instruction on that website to show how to calculate the sum. Has anyone done this before? Please kindly help me with any instructions or hints. Thanks a lot!!

          Hi Shuixin,

           

          This is a butterfly chart - here's how to create them

           

          Step 1 define your 2 fields (in this case I have separated Segment from Superstore data into Consumer and Corporate)

          Step 2 drop the fields into the columns section of your worksheet - in this case I have used State as my y axis

          Step 3 Edit the axis of the left column, and select the reversed tickbox

           

          Viola you have a butterfly chart

           

          HTH
