I'm trying to see what others can see on my timeline. I've found the option for "View as" but at the top all it says is "This content on your profile is: Public". How can I change this to see what a particular friend can see?

I think you may not be able to - they found a security hole a while back where 'show as' was showing some people too much.
But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

I only ask because I've a post on my timeline (I've been tagged by someone else) and when I hover on the audience icon, it says visible to "Some of Ash_Pole's friends" and I'm trying to work out who this includes.0 -
As a general rule if you get tagged it follows the settings in your profile here:You'll probably never know who can and who can't see it, short of messaging everybody and asking them.1

You can't change the setting for that. It's actually kind of bothering.
If you're concern is about someone tagging you and wanting to see who can see that post, you may want to turn on your timeline review setting.1 -
