Column slide

The Column slide type enables you to create a column chart in your presentation by selecting board groups, an x-axis column, and one or more y-axis columns. This slide type is ideal for comparing values across categories or time periods in a visually structured format.

Key Features

  • X-Axis and Y-Axis Configuration:

    • X-Axis: Choose a column to represent the horizontal axis (typically used for categories or time).
    • Y-Axes: Select one or more columns to represent the data points.
  • Group By Time Period: This option appears when a date column is selected as the x-axis. You can choose a time period to group the dates in the x-axis column: Day (default), Week, Month, Quarter, Half Year, or Year.

  • Calculation Options: Determine how to calculate the y-axis values: Sum (default), Average, Median, Min or Max

  • Display Settings:

    • Show Empty Values: Choose whether to include empty x-axis values. This feature is disabled by default.
    • Show Default/Unassigned Values: Decide whether to include default or unassigned x-axis value. This feature is disabled by default.
