Embedded View defaults to Mobile layout in Browser

Issue

When embedding a view that utilizes a device layout and the default dashboard size is similar in Width and Height, once embedded, the view may default to the mobile view, rather than the default layout.

Environment

Tableau Desktop
Tableau Public Server
Tableau Server

Resolution

To workaround this behavior, please consider the following workarounds.

Option 1:

Set Default dashboard sizing to "automatic"

Option 2:

Set Default Dashboard sizing to "Range" ensuring that the dimensions are greater than 500 pixels. If the smallest dimension is <=500px, we assume it's a phone.

Option 3:

Consider writing your own custom embed code. See Embed Views into Webpages
