Graph visualization

The Graph visualization provides several types of graphs, each configured through the Graph controls.

Select the Graph option from the visualization dropdown in the upper left.

Graph behavior

The Graph visualization color codes each table (or series) in the queried data set. When multiple series are present, it automatically assigns colors based on the selected Line Colors option.

When using a line graph, all points within a single table are connected. When multiple series are present, it automatically assigns colors based on the selected Line Colors option.

Graph controls

To view Graph controls, click Customize next to the visualization dropdown.

Options

• Interpolation: Select from the following options:
  • Line: Display a time series in a line graph
  • Smooth: Display a time series in a line graph with smooth point interpolation.
  • Step: Display a time series in a staircase graph.
• Line Colors: Select a color scheme to use for your graph.
• Shade Area Below Lines: Shade in the area below the graph lines.
• Hover Dimension: Select the data to display in the tooltip when you hover over the graph:
  • auto or X Axis: Show all points with the same x value along the y-axis.
  • Y Axis: Show all points with the same y value along the x-axis.
