Vizlib Line Chart Properties - Dimensions and Measures

In Vizlib Line Chart, settings for dimensions and measures are held in the Data section of the property panel. Vizlib Line Chart supports either one dimension with up to ten measures or two dimensions with one measure (Figure 1).

When you add a dimension (Figure 2), you can enter your own Label name for the Field, and choose to Include null values. You can also select a Limitation when you're displaying values (No limitation, Fixed number, Exact value and Relative value) and add a new Master Item. You can click Add alternative if you'd like to use alternative dimensions. If you add alternatives, you'll be able to choose the dimension you use in analysis mode.

Dynamic Label


If you choose to show a Dynamic Label, you can add a Label Expression, and you can also enter a Condition if you'd like to add a Visibility Condition. You can also set the Axis Position for the measure (Primary sets the axis to the left, Secondary to the right), allowing you to customise the axis to display multiple measures on the same line chart.

If you enable Stack data, the dimensions in the chart will be "stacked" on top of each other rather than overlapping. You can use expressions or a slider to set the Line Opacity, Data Point Opacity and Line Thickness

Forecast Settings


The Forecast settings (Figure 11) allow you to manage the look and feel of the forecasting elements in your line chart. The first (and most important) control is Excluded From Forecasting, which is set to Included by default. If you don't want a measure to be used in the forecast, it should be set to Excluded. If the measure is included, you can customize the % Confidence Area to set the Area Background Color and Area Opacity, choose your own Line Styling options by selecting a Line Color and Line Style, and enable the Accumulate Values setting.

As with dimensions, you can click Add alternative if you'd like to use alternative measures. If you add alternatives, you'll be able to choose the measure you use in analysis mode.
