Create a cohesive visual style that aligns with your organization’s presentation or brand standards. Apply settings for text, lines, backgrounds, and marks across an entire visualization. Or customize specific elements, such as field labels, axes, and headers. Available formatting options vary by visualization layout. ### Required Editions

In the Style pane, use visualization-level settings (1) to format the visualization as a whole. Use Style-Specific Elements (2) to format individual components. Formatting applied to specific elements takes precedence over visualization-level formatting. Preview formatting changes as you make them, and save the visualization when you’re ready. ![Tableau Next Style Pane in the Viz Builder](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-analytics-tua-264-0-0-production-enus/d794334f-d174-49d3-a4d2-a615bd2e54aa/tua/images/tua_viz_stylepane.png) ## Visualization-Level Formatting in Tableau Next Establish a consistent visual baseline across a Tableau Next visualization that makes the data easier to read and understand.
