New Visual Layout Tool Suggestion

I love that Alteryx came out with the visual layout tool. It's making some of the reporting I need to do much easier. Now for the challenges. I need this tool to allow me to either use a custom background or allow the overlapping of elements with the layout tool. Overlapping other elements would be the ideal way of doing this. But either will work.

Hi @ClaudioLI

It is great to hear your feedback, thank you! We will be working to get the Overlay tool to be a supported incoming element type with the new Visual Layout tool, which should allow for the overlapping elements that you're looking for. We have some other layout features that we need to tackle first, but this is high up on our list! The overall end-goal is to make this processes of overlapping elements easier than the current Overlay allows, but first pass we'll add in support for the existing Overlay tool.

 

I hope this helps! We will be continually releasing updates to the tool and look forward to hearing how it works out for you once we get this particular feature included.
