Below is a sample of the data I am working with but basically, I am creating a dashboard in Tableau that visualizes metrics on a gauge chart. Normally this is quite simple, and I'd just used static parameters to calculate the color, however each of the individual metrics have thresholds on the gauge chart that reflect how the chart should be colored in using the thresholds against what the data in the row "actual" shows for each metric. For example, metric A would be light blue, metric B would be light orange, C would be blue, and so on. I basically used Creating NPS Gauges in Tableau to make the gauge and can successfully create a static scale adding in the extra colors where <.2 is orange, >.2 is light orange, >.4 is gray, >.6 is light blue, >.8 is blue. Though the static scale doesn't cut it and I am trying to create a more dynamic view, how can I put this together to using the thresholds in conjunction with the actual value to figure this out? Any help/direction is very much so appreciated!
