Chart elements

Use chart elements to set up charts according to your requirements.

The following chart elements are available in this context:
  • Data series
  • Intervals
  • Sidecharts

Data series

Use data series to configure the observations you want to visualize in a chart. You can add several data series to the same chart, where each data series visualizes a different observation. Reference a column in the data table to depict the observation. You can also reference the same observation in different data series which allows you to highlight different aspects.

Intervals

Use intervals to quantify the uncertainty of your observations. Reference the data table columns you want to use as upper and lower boundaries to define the level of confidence and use bars or areas to visualize the results.

Sidecharts

Use sidecharts to summarize statistical parameters in a data series and visualize them as box plots or using mean and standard deviation. Sidecharts can be created for all data series or a specific series as well as for the full chart or all subcharts. You can configure up to two sidecharts.
