Temporal Channels Chart

Many visual options are available on the Chart tab, as shown on the image below.

Plot fills between multiple channels

In case of multiple channels (even from multiple assets) in the same widget, it's possible to specify to fill the area between the curves when they get crossed, in both positive and negative values. This feature can be helpful to enlighten the user about the difference between the values.

The configuration for the other channel to be compared and how to fill the positive and negative differences is available in Widget Chart Options menu at right top of each widget.

Stacked area charts

A stacked area chart displays the evolution of a numeric variable for several groups of a dataset. Each group is displayed on top of each other, making it easier to read the evolution of the total.

Comparing the heights of each segment of the curve allows us to get a general idea of how each subgroup compares to the other in their contributions to the total.

On the Widget Chart Options menu, after clicking on the stacked chart icon, the following option is available:

• Stroke style and width: Sets different stroke styles and widths for the current channel.

Channels with different units can be added on the same stacked chart, but the user will receive a warning message. {% endhint %}

Different types of charts can be added on the same visualization, as shown on the image below:

{% hint style="warning" %} Important note:

As this chart type focus on the relative comparison between the channels, the channel ordering functionality is not available on stacked charts. {% endhint %}
