Possible Values

Name Description
bar Bar charts use horizontal data markers to compare individual values. Bar charts are useful for showing trends over time and for charts that plot many data series.

Bar charts are the default value.

pie Pie charts use segments of a circle to show the relationship of parts to the whole. Pie charts are useful for highlighting proportions.
line Line charts plot data at regular points connected by lines. Line charts are useful for showing trends over time and for charts with many data series.
area Area charts are like line charts that have the areas below the lines filled with colors or patterns. Area charts are useful for emphasizing the magnitude of change over time.
scatter Scatter charts use data points to plot two measures anywhere along a scale, not only at regular tick marks. Scatter charts are useful for exploring correlations between different sets of data.
gauge Gauge charts use needles to show information as a reading on a dial. Gauge charts are useful for comparing values between a small number of variables, either by using multiple needles on the same gauge or by using multiple gauges.
