A visual may become very crowded, making it hard to understand what graphical elements represent. Arcadia Enterprise makes it easy to find a particular series by making legends not only explanatory, but also interactive.
The following steps demonstrate how to add a legend that makes a visual interactive, by either hovering over the element, or by selecting an element by clicking on the legend.
Arcadia Enterprise makes it easy to find a particular element in the legend by hovering over it.
Hover on one of the options in the legend, to highlight only the data for that species. We chose versicolor.
This graph is also interactive in Edit mode, inside a dashboard.
A line chart display can become very crowded, making it difficult to discern which line models a particular series. For example, the World Life Expectancy dataset models data for over 200 countries. Arcadia Enterprise makes it easy to find a particular series by making the chart legend interactive.
We are using the line of the World Life Expectancy
dataset [data source
samples.world_life_expectancy
]. To create this chart, follow the
instructions in Line Visuals.
Switch to Dashboard View mode.
Click on one of the options in the legend for the visual, to see only the data for that country. We chose Albania.
Notice that the new chart displays the line for Albania only. Additionally, the horizontal axis adjusts for the dimension range; Albania reports data starting in year 1934.
Arcadia Enterprise lists all applicable filters at the top of the vertical axis. Hovering over them shows the values of the filters.
