Chart Visuals

Twenty-two pictures, and you are only shown the ones this answer can actually fill. So nobody builds a chart that misreads its own numbers, and nobody finds that out on the wallboard.

The color a mark gets is its position in the palette, indexed and wrapped at the end, so the ninth series would repeat the first.

Two names draw nothing

SUNBURST · SANKEY

Twenty-two names in the catalog, twenty with a working renderer · the legend takes four positions or none, and series can be pre-hidden by key when a chart is noisy by default
Five arcs of one total. Each arc is drawn per row, which is why a color rule can bite here and cannot on a line.

The mechanism

How it works.

01

The menu is what this answer can fill

Categorical opens column, bar, pie, donut, funnel, treemap and radial bar. Series opens clustered and stacked column, clustered and stacked bar, line, area, stacked area, combo and radar. Scatter opens two. Table opens two. Gauge and KPI open one each.

02

Change your mind without waiting again

The picture is stored beside the answer rather than inside it. Pick a different one and the numbers you already have are handed to a different drawing. Nothing is queried again and nothing is counted twice.

03

Column and bar appear under two shapes

One category with one measure and one category with several are different answers that happen to share a silhouette. The shape is read first and the name second, so the two are drawn by different components with different stacking, legend and click behavior.

04

Three of them read a nesting rather than a list

Sunburst, Sankey and treemap hang off the hierarchy shape, which returns parents with their children rather than a flat set of categories. Treemap appears under the categorical shape as well, where the nesting is one level deep and a tile is simply a category.

Where it sits

One moment in every number.

Every number passes through the same seven. Chart Visuals is the lit one, and everything either side of it is a different page in this category.

The specifics.

7 facts
Catalog
Twenty-two names, each with a renderer of its own behind it
Per shape
Categorical 7, series 9, scatter 2, table 2, gauge 1, KPI 1, hierarchy 3
The hierarchy trio
Sunburst, Sankey and treemap read a parent-and-child result. Treemap also draws under the categorical shape, where the nesting is one level deep
Stacking
The bar family reads a setting of none, stacked, or normalized to a hundred. The two area charts stack according to which of their two names you chose
Unset
Falls to the first compatible name for the shape rather than refusing to render
Legend
Four positions or hidden, with series pre-hidden by key when a chart is noisy by default
Not the same as
Widget Studio, which fixes the shape that decides which of these names you are shown

11 capabilities

Seven data shapes, twenty-two visuals, shareable without a login.

Dashboard Sharing

Hand a board to a team or a CRM role, at read or at edit, by the person who built it. Roles outlive people, which is why a share points at one, not a mailbox.

Dashboards

The board a team opens on holds the figures that team is judged by, not everybody's. Six columns to lay them out in, and your own tab opens first.

Cross-Filtering

Click the bar for one queue and the rest of the board goes with it. The next question gets asked by pointing at the answer, and undone by clicking again.

Drill-Through

Some answers will not fit on the board that raised the question. A click leaves carrying the value it stood on, and lands on a board already narrowed to it.

Reference Lines

The number that was promised, drawn across the same chart as the number that arrived, so the floor reads itself against its target, not yesterday's bars.

Comparison Periods

Nobody has to remember what last week looked like, or dig out the sheet it was written on. The same figure is counted again over the window before it.

Filter Trees

The report that needs two exceptions and a date range stays one widget, instead of three tiles that nearly agree. Seventeen operators in a nested and-or tree.

Bucketing & Grouping

Ten thousand plus never turns up before two hundred on a board the floor is watching. Group by day through year, by equal bands, or by breakpoints you set.

Public Links

Send a client the board without giving them a login. The address works until the day you name, dies the moment you revoke it, and leaves a row explaining why.

Embedded Widgets

A figure on the screen where the work happens, not on a board somebody must remember to open. Built once, worked out against the records of whoever opens it.

Call Analytics

How many calls, how many answered, how long they ran, how many missed, counted off the records the switch already wrote. Not a sample or last night's export.
