Som charts have a lot of new settings, so here is a short description:

Country and regional maps 

We support a wide range of country and regional maps from all over the world - for example Europe, Scandinavia, EU counties, etc. If you have ISO standard country and regional codes in you dataset, you can show you data on the map!

Short on how to find the country codes you need to be able to display your own maps:

  • Select your map source from the chart properties dialog.
  • When you click on the "Copy to clipboard" button you will get a JSON output with country and codes which can be used in your dataset.
  • Example of output from above image: Denmark:dk, Sweden:se, Norway:no, 

Waterfall

In the waterfall chart you can specify the color for each of the columns in the chart. In the dataset we have also reserved 2 column names that we use to automatically calculate and insert intermediate and total sum .

 

XYZ-chart

This chart has values on both X, Y and Z scales - where Z is the size of the markers. The labels (category text) is displayed at the corresponding XY-coordinate and it can be shown as either plain text or HTML (defined in the dataset).
The labels has properties for alignment and vertical offsett (in pixels) for label according to data point. You can select different marker symbols and choose to hide the markers if you want.

It is also possible to reversed direction of the axis.

Updated range indicators

Our range indicators have been improved. Now you can select for a wide range of icons from our global image library or you can upload your own! You can also set how big the icons should be in your dashboard and where to display it relative to the value (left, right, top, bottom). The icons can still be displayed in tables and numeric displays and the background color you set can be shown in charts.
