Radar Chart

A radar chart can display analyzed data or ratios, allowing you to easily view various data indicators and trends. It maps the data of multiple dimensions onto a coordinate axis that starts at the same center point and ends at the circumference, connecting the points of the same group with lines. This chart is often used to show the distribution of dimension values. This section will introduce the configuration of radar charts.

Fields

  1. In the Data area on the right, select a dataset, and double-click or drag required dimension and metric fields to the corresponding areas on the Fields tab.
    Table 1 Parameters on the Fields tab

    Parameter

    Description

    Field display content

    Click in the column and click Field display content to modify the field display content on the displayed page. Click OK.

    Aggregation Mode

    Select Aggregation Method and click to support setting of no aggregation, sum, count, distinct count, maximum value, minimum value, average value, population standard deviation, sample standard deviation, sample variance, range start value, and range end value.

    Drilldown

    You can enable drilldown for dimension fields. For example, you can view data at different levels of granularity, ranging from years down to quarters, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and even seconds, depending on the time dimension.
    • Click the field () in the column and drag the field of the target location to be drilled down to the Drilldown area.
    • Click Update to test whether the drilldown function is set successfully.
      NOTE:
      • Drill-down is only supported for dimension fields, not for metric fields.
      • You can only select one field as the starting point for drill-down.
      • When drilling down on time, the system will automatically add the subdivided time periods to the drill-down order list and include them in the sorting field (fields that are already in the sorting field will not be added again).
      • Drill-down icons should be highlighted for fields that have already been drilled down. If you remove the drill-down field from the dimension, the entire drill-down function box will disappear.
  2. Set the color legend: Drag the desired field into Color Legend (dimensions only) on the Field tab. After setting, the chart will use different colors to distinguish data based on dimensions.
  3. Set a filter.
    1. Find the data field you need in the dimension and metric lists within the data column.
    2. Click next to the field you wish to filter and you will be directed to the filter settings page.
    3. Click OK.
