The data visualization includes visual data marks representing data from the data source. The user selects a subset of the visual data marks. In response, the computer displaying a view data window having a summary of the selected data marks. The computer obtains a data model encoding the data source as a tree of logical tables, each including one or more logical fields. Each logical field corresponds to either a data field or a calculation that spans one or more logical tables. Each edge of the tree connects two logical tables that are related. The computer identifies aggregate measures corresponding to the selected data marks, and displays each aggregate measure in the view data window.
