Advanced Techniques: Import Formatting from Another Analysis

You can quickly format new or existing analyses by importing the format of a saved analysis and its views. Most people don’t need to perform this task.

For example, suppose you applied different colors to the Store, City, and Product columns of the Last Year's Brand Revenue analysis. You can apply the same colors to the This Year's Brand Revenue analysis by importing the column color format.

• To import formatting to all views in an analysis, click Import formatting from another analysis in the Compound Layout toolbar.

• To import formatting just to the view you're editing, click Edit View, then click Import formatting from another analysis.

Formatting is applied slightly differently depending on whether you import formatting applied to columns, views, or view containers in the Compound Layout.
