In Arcadia Enterprise, radial charts are a good approach for comparing the relative values of several measures. These measures are assigned an equal angle of rotation, and the relative values are represented through the areas of each wedge.
The following steps demonstrate how to create a new radial visual representation on dataset Cereals
[data source samples.cereals
].
Cereals
[data source samples.cereals
]; see Creating Visuals.In the visuals menu, find and click radial (row 3, column 2).
Note that the shelves of the visual include Dimensions, Measures, Tooltips, and Filters.
