The Plot Type formatting option is available in the Combination Chart.



The table given below describes different fields present for Plot Type formatting.

Field

Description

Remark

Column

Organization of data in the column. 

The values are:

  • CLUSTER – Separate data columns
  • STACKED – Data columns stacked on each other.

Line

The line style.

For the combination chart, we show a combination of a Column chart and a Line chart. The values Spline and Area are different styles of representation for the Line part of the combination chart.

To use Plot Type formatting options, first plot a Combination Chart using the dimensions and measures from the dataset. For example, we plot a Combination Chart of Income and Education against Gender. The Ethnicity of the sample is the Legend dimension.

The figure given below shows an original image of the Combination Chart.



Now, change the COLUMN to STACKED and LINE to AREA.

The resultant widget is shown below.
