Flow Chart Overview

Vizlib Flow Chart is a highly customisable and easy-to-use extension where you can create and visualize flows and splits between your data, much like a sankey chart. Supporting one measure and multiple dimensions, Vizlib Flow Chart is a type of flow diagram where the width of each link represents the metric volume going from one dimension to the other. While a sankey chart includes null settings, Vizlib Flow Chart does not, meaning the results more clearly displayed and defined.

Vizlib Flow Chart features include:

  • Fully customizable chart with rich formatting options.

  • Transitions between selection states for a better understanding how your data is filtered.

  • Innovative interactivity modes: zooming, vertical dragging, re-arranging / sorting dimensions.

  • Sorting of dimensions.

  • Lots of coloring options, by node, dimension or measure.

  • Support for alternative dimensions and measures.

  • Full interactivity support and ability to make the chart read-only.

  • Support for alternate states.

  • Conditional show/hide of dimensions.
