Abstract
A computer generates and displays a data visualization in a data visualization user interface according to placement of data fields, from a data source. The data visualization includes visual data marks representing data from the data source. The computer detects a user input to select a visual data mark. In response to detecting the user input, the computer obtains a data model encoding the data source as a tree of logical tables. The computer identifies one or more aggregated data values for the visual data mark, each of the aggregated data values corresponding to a respective data field in the data model. For each of the aggregated data values, the computer retrieves a respective disaggregated set of data rows from a respective logical table containing the respective data field. The computer displays a summary grid, with a respective tab corresponding to each of the retrieved disaggregated sets of data rows.
