How to Visualize Hidden Series in a Chart Widget with Overlapping Data Points
When two series in a chart widget have the same data points, one series may be rendered behind the other, making it difficult to visualize the hidden series. This article will guide you in visualizing the hidden series when two series have the same data.
Steps to Visualize Hidden Series
- Identify the overlapping series in the chart widget.
- Change the chart type control to visualize the hidden series better.
- Consider using different chart types for each series to differentiate them.
- Use the Legend toggle to display the data points for each series.
Changing other Chart Type control
Change the chart type to visualize the hidden series better. For example, use a stacked column chart or a 100% stacked column chart to display the overlapping data points in separate columns.
Using Different Chart Types for Each Series
Another option is to use different chart types for each series. For example, use a line chart for one series and a column chart for the other. This will help differentiate the two series and make it easier to visualize the hidden series.
Using Legend Toggle
The legend can be used to display the data points for each series. When you click on the legend, the series will be hidden from the chart control. If you want to enable the series, again click on the disabled legend.
Conclusion
Visualizing hidden series in a chart widget with overlapping data points can be challenging. By adjusting the chart type or settings, using different chart types for each series, and utilizing legend, visualize the hidden series better and make your data more accessible.
