Charts are powerful tools for data visualization, enabling users to uncover insights from consumer data effectively. By transforming raw data into visual formats, charts help to identify trends, patterns, and anomalies that may not be immediately obvious. This guide will walk you through the steps to edit your chart within our platform, ensuring you can customize your data visualizations to meet your specific needs.

Editing your cart

Chart settings: Click on the "Edit" icon to open the open the chart settings panel. Here, you can customize your chart based on the type of question and the data you have.
Choosing a chart type: Select from various chart types, such as bar, column, pie, line, stacked column, and stacked bar, depending on the nature of your data.
Customizing colours: Choose from 8 different colour palettes to make your chart visually appealing or create your own custom colour theme. You can then choose which specific colours to use for each variable.
Removing answers or variables: You have the option to remove specific answers or variables from your chart to focus on the most relevant data.
Switching axes: You can switch the axes to change how the data is visualized, providing a different perspective on the same dataset.
Setting axis range: Inside "more settings" you can change the axis range from "auto" to "custom" where you can choose a specific bottom and top value for your axis.
Displaying answers vs. subjects: For grid and ranked questions, you can decide whether to display answers or subjects on the chart.

Page level options

The page level options menu on the top right will also give you a few more options such as choosing your colour theme for all charts, displaying the percentages (data labels) on the chart or choosing the order in which your results are displayed.

Creating your own custom colour themes

In addition to the default Attest colour themes, you have the option to create your own custom theme. This enables you to effortlessly incorporate your brand’s colours into your charts, ensuring that your data visualizations not only communicate effectively but also align consistently with your brand identity. When selecting a theme, simply choose the "+ Create Custom Theme" option, where you can input your brand's specific HEX codes. Once created, your custom theme will be accessible for all surveys across your organization.

Statistical Significance on charts

By default statistically significant changes will be highlighted with an up of down arrow, indicating a significant increase or decrease. You can toggle the statistical significance option at the top right to hide or show this on the charts. You can also adjust the confidence level and comparison column to suit your analysis needs.

Saving settings

All settings applied to your chart will be saved for the specific question. This means if you leave the chart and return later, your customizations will still be in place, ensuring consistency in your data analysis. If you want to share this visualisation with others in your organisation, we recommend saving the chart to a board and sharing the board link. You can learn more about board here.
