Introduction
This article describes how to create a line chart visualization from a data table. It will take you from a table like this:
To a Page that like this:
Requirements
- A crosstab table with at least two rows or columns.
Method
- Go to Visualization > Line > Line. A new object will be created on the Page and you'll notice the controls (the object inspector) on the right-hand side of the screen.
- Under Inputs > DATA SOURCE click the drop-down to see all your tables and other outputs in this project. Select the desired crosstab table.
- You'll notice that the chart shows the data split by columns as a series. To fix it, go to Inputs > DATA MANIPULATION and check the Switch rows and columns box.
- OPTIONAL: To change the color selection, go to Chart > DATA SERIES > Color palette and change it to the desired palette.
