Charts

A Charts layout turns the View’s rows into a dashboard of cards, each counting or aggregating the rows its own way. It only reads: editing stays with the other layout types. Choose Charts as the layout’s Type; the sections below follow the layout’s Data section, which Data Filtering describes. Every card works on all rows the filters match, from any data source.

Layout

Minimum column width, 180 to 720 pixels and 320 by default, sets how narrow a dashboard column may get. Wider values give fewer, roomier columns.

Chart cards

Add chart card adds a card; each card is one entry in the list, with arrows to move it and Remove chart card to delete it. A card has these settings:

  • Title, shown at the top of the card.
  • Chart type: Area, Bar, Line, Pie, Radar, Radial or Number. A Number card shows one value for all rows.
  • Variant, the presentation of the chart type, listed below.
  • Group by column: the column whose values become the chart’s categories, such as a status column for one bar per status.
  • Series column, for Area, Bar, Line and Radar charts: an optional second column that splits each category into series, such as months grouped by status.
  • Aggregation: Count counts rows; Sum, Average, Minimum and Maximum work on the numbers in Value column.
  • Color: Blue, Green, Amber, Pink or Violet. Charts with several series or slices take further colors from the same palette.
  • Card size: Auto follows the grid, Standard takes one column, Wide spans more and Full width spans the whole dashboard.

A Number card has only its title, type, aggregation, value column and card size.
