What is personalized visualization?
Custom Visualizations allow users to create their own data visualization logic to draw query results using representations that are not covered by the built-in library of standard charts and visualizations. Custom visuals are created in Formulate, and can then be used in Discover to represent your data discoveries.
How do I choose a chart type?
If you want to compare values, use a pie chart — for relative comparison — or bar charts — for precise comparison. If you want to compare volumes, use an area chart or a bubble chart. If you want to show trends and patterns in your data, use a line chart, bar chart, or scatter plot.
Which type of visual should be used when you need to present individual exact values?
A pie chart typically represents numbers in percentages, used to visualize a part to whole relationship or a composition. Pie charts are not meant to compare individual sections to each other or to represent exact values (you should use a bar chart for that).
