Want to hide the Bar for Grand Total in the bar chart in Tableau

Question

I need to hide the bar for grand total but show only labels for it. That is, I do not want to show any bars for the grand totals, just the labels. Please find the below screenshot. Also find the URL for Tableau workbook: https://community.tableau.com/message/730696#730696

Answer 1

Tableau treats the whole visualization uniformly.  If you don't want bars in the grand totals, then create separate sheets to format them differently. For example create one sheet containing all the data with labels and bar chart and another sheet in which you only make your grand total appear as text i.e. without using the bar charts.
