Using the radar chart

The radar chart is able to represent more than two variables in a single chart. Therefore, this chart has multiple axes that all start in the same point. The radar chart can be used to make comparisons between series, based on their score on a set of variables.

Getting ready

Open a new Dashboard Design file and enter the data into the spreadsheet as shown in the following screenshot:

How to do it...

  1. Drag a Radar Chart component to the canvas.
  2. Enter a name and subtitle for the chart.
  3. Bind the cell range A4 to F6 to the By Range field.

How it works...

Our dataset has two series and five categories. The chart has an axis for each category and on these axes the accompanying values are plotted for each series. The values of a series are connected with a line.

There is more...

The filled radar chart component does the same job as the radar chart component and has the same configuration options. The only difference is that the area between the connected value points is filled with a color in the filled radar chart component.
