⚡ Build Charts Faster with Auto Mapping Fields

We are excited to announce the upgraded the interaction between the Dataset Panel and the Viz Settings to help you build charts faster.

🌟 What's Changed​

Previously, clicking a field only added it to Tables. Now, you can click to add fields to any visualization type.

🧠 The logic​

The system maps your field to the best slot based on the Field Type (Dimension vs. Measure) and the Chart Type.

  • Auto-Fill: If slots are empty, clicking a field fills them automatically.
  • Quick Swap: If your chart is full, clicking a new field instantly replaces the existing one.

Both click-to-add and drag-and-drop are fully supported, so you can work whichever way feels most natural to you.

🔭The Vision​

This update is more than just a shortcut; it is a foundational step toward a cleaner Explore experience. Our goal is to move toward an Explore interface where the Viz Settings panel can remain collapsed by default, allowing you to focus purely on your data and the visualization.
