Area Chart

Use an area chart to compare one or more numeric series across the same labels.

Area charts are useful when you want stacked or overlapping lines with filled areas.

Setup

  1. Add a Data provider
  2. Add an Area chart inside the provider
  3. Select the provider in the chart settings
  4. Choose a label column
  5. Choose one or more numeric data columns

Settings

Common settings include:

  • Provider
  • Label column
  • Data column(s)
  • Format
  • X-axis and Y-axis labels
  • Width and height
  • Colours

Use stacked values

Enable Stacked when you want series to build on top of each other.

Leave it off when you want the series to overlap.
