Categories can display the same calculations in multiple ways.
The default is the table view.
You can also display the information in a pie chart or bar chart.
Add a Display
Open the category settings.
Click "add display." The button is located in the bottom left.
Display Editor
The display editor appears.
Input a name for your display. The name will display in your analytics report as a sub header in the category.
Then, select the type of display you want to add.
Table
Table is the default view for analytics.
It shows your calculations as rows.
A Table display is included by default with every category. You do not need to add the table unless you want multiple displays (see following section).
Pie
A pie chart is great for visualizing parts of a whole.
Add a display.
Click the Pie option in the display settings.
Give the chart a name, if desired.
Inclusion/Exclusion
Choose calculations to include or exclude from the chart, if desired.
This allows flexibility with the display within a single category - nominate only a few calculations to tell a specific story.
Inferred Data
Toggle "show total sum of measure values" to see a subtotal of the calculations included in the chart
Toggle "show measure percentage of total" to see a % breakdown when you mouse over the chart line items.
Bar
A bar chart is great for comparing two or more values.

Click the bar option in the display settings.

Chart Colors
By default, the chart inherits a gradient based on the category's color.
Assign a different color scheme by clicking the paint palette icon. The paint palette appears when you mouse over the chart.
From the selector, choose a different scheme.
To revert to category color, click the "from category color" button.
Multiple Displays
You can include multiple displays within a single category.
To add another display, click "add display."
Add as many as you like.
Each display can have different settings, including which calculations to include/exclude, whether to subtotal, or color scheme applied.
Grouping with Displays
When you group your calculations by a property, a chart will display for each group.
Rather than the line items being displayed to the right, they are listed below the chart.
If desired, a different color scheme can be applied to each grouping chart in the same category.
Similarly, when you toggle "subcategorize by usage," charts will generate for each usage.
