About Sparklines
Whereas the typical chart is designed to show as much data as possible and
is set off from the flow of text, Sparklines are intended to be succinct,
memorable, and located where they are discussed. Logi Info provides four
Sparkline elements:
Element | Looks Like | Comment |
---|---|---|
Sparkline.Area | ![]() | This element produces an area chart, and includes background, gradient, and edge color attributes. |
Sparkline.Bar | ![]() | This element produces a typical bar chart, with bar height varying based on data values. Negative values are displayed below the x-axis. |
Sparkline.Line | ![]() | This element produces a typical line chart, with a configurable line width. |
Sparkline.WinLoss | ![]() | This element produces a chart similar to a bar chart, except the bar heights are all the same and simply indicate whether a data value is above or below a configurable threshold. |
Sparklines are often used inside Data Table columns, but they can be used just about anywhere a regular chart can be used.
