Common Chart Elements

The following controls have a common purpose across all chart types, though not every feature is available for every chart type.

• By default, all rows are used to produce the chart. To focus the chart on a subset of records, drag one or more columns to the Filters control and select which values of those columns should be displayed, and which should be filtered out. For more information about filter settings, see Filter settings.

• Display controls the location and display of the chart legend.

• Color controls the color in the charts. See Color palettes for details.

• By default, charts are static. To animate a chart, drag a column to the Animation control.

• By default, a single chart is produced. To create paneled charts, drag a column to the Subcharts control.

• By default, charts include tooltips for points in the chart. Drag one or more columns to the Tooltip control in order to add information on those columns to the tooltips.
