TABLE OF CONTENTS
Best Practice
- Let's introduce you - If you're new to Vizlib Pie Chart, or looking to find some information, the Introduction page has links to the product resources and knowledge base articles.
- Work with the wizard - Always use the Setup Wizard to start building a pie chart, you can always add expressions or edit data in the property panel once you have the basic version.
- Do you really want pie? - Vizlib Pie Chart is great to use with smaller, more simple data sets, but it does have a limited number of features (there's no Viztips integration, for example) so if you're using a complex data set, you may want to consider using another Vizlib chart extension (e.g. bar chart or line chart).
- There is an alternative - Vizlib Pie Chart can be used with alternative dimensions and measures. If you add alternatives, you'll be able to choose the measure you prefer when you're using analysis mode, changing the outcome of the chart for a much more adaptable and varied used experience.
- Performance - Vizlib Pie Chart uses using the Qlik Sense hub engine, and each individual value will be processed separately. To get the most out of working with Qlik Sense, you can find more information in our article on Best Practice and Performance Optimization in Qlik Sense.
