How to Create a Table of Bars (Bar Crosstab)

This article describes how to create a table of bar charts (similar to adding spark bars to each cell) from a table. Our example will go from a table like this... 

... to a shaded data bar visualization called a Bar Crosstab:

Requirements

• A table of data or variables to use in the Rows/Columns in the visualization.

Method

1. From the toolbar, select Visualization > Bar > Bar Crosstab.
2. From the object inspector > Data > Data Source section:
   • To use a table as the input, click into the Data field and select the name of your table (alternatively, you can also click on the table to insert the name).
   • To use variables to create a table on the backend within the visualization, select your variables in the Rows and Columns fields. Note: this is only available to users with a full Displayr license. If using this as the input, you can also apply select Rules to customize the coloring, sorting, etc of the table of bars.
3. The Chart tab in the object inspector is where you configure the appearance of the chart.
