What are shelves in Tableau?..

Answer / Rupa Bhatnagar

Shelves in Tableau are used to control the detail, context, and comparison of marks in a view. Each shelf represents a dimension or measure that can be moved between the left (detail) and right (context) sides of the visualization. Marks on the detail shelf are shown individually, while those on the context shelf are grouped by the specified dimension. Shelves allow users to compare data points within a visualization, and to filter or highlight specific values.
