Question

Move filter Title to the left instead of on the top of dropdown

Environment

Tableau Desktop

Answer

The ability to have the formatting for filter to move to the left of filter dropdown options is not built in Tableau Desktop.

As a workaround:

1. Add the filter to the dashboard.
2. Uncheck Show Title for filter.
3. Add a tiled text box to the left of the filter options as a title.
