The Small Multiples - Area Chart feature creates a panel of area charts, rather than stacking or overlaying the results.
We will end up with several small column charts like this:
Requirements
- A table with at least two columns and at least one row.
Method - via the visualization menu
- From the toolbar, select Visualization > Area > Small Multiples Area.
- Click on the page to place the visualization.
- Under Inputs > DATA SOURCE > Output in 'Pages' select the table that you want to base the chart on. Alternatively, in Inputs > DATA SOURCE > Variables in 'Data', select that data that you would like to be in the rows.
- OPTIONAL: If using Variables in 'Data' in Step 3, select the secondary variable to use as your cluster in Inputs > DATA SOURCE > Groups.
- OPTIONAL: Under Chart make additional adjustments to change the appearance of the visualization.
- Click Calculate and/or ensure that Automatic is checked.
Method 2 - using an existing table
- Select the table.
- From the object inspector, go to Visualization > Area > Small Multiples Area.
- OPTIONAL: Under Chart make additional adjustments to change the appearance of the visualization.
- Click Calculate and/or ensure that Automatic is checked.
Note
Important information about editing captions:
Visualization caption edits may not be retained when a visualization with a nested table is switched back to table. Normally, this only occurs when you double-click the caption and edit the text directly. As a workaround, we recommend using Properties > CAPTION > Edit caption to edit your captions.
