NetDiver Graph Formats

You can view your data in various graphical formats. The best type of graph to use depends on the data being presented.

Basic Plot Graphs

Basic plot graphs display data for a single dimension and up to 16 summaries. They consist of a series of plotted points that correspond to summary values being displayed. Basic plot graphs include bar graphs, line graphs, and point graphs. The following styles of basic plot graphs are available:

Bar Plot Graph Example

Line Plot Graph Example

Point Plot Graph Example

3-D Bar Plot Graph Example

3-D Line Plot Graph Example

Pie Plot Graphs

Pie plot graphs display up to 16 values for a single dimension. If there are more than 16 values, the graph displays the first 15 values listed in the tabular display, and combines the remaining values in a 16th wedge called Other. The following styles of pie plot graphs are available:

Cross Plot Graphs

Cross plot graphs shows data that pertains to two dimensions simultaneously. The following styles of cross plot graphs are available:

• Bar Cross Plot Example

  

• Line Cross Plot Example

  

  NOTE: If there is only one value, instead of a line, the graph displays a dot.

• Point Cross Plot Example

  

• 3-D Bar Cross Plot Example

  

• 3-D Line Cross Plot Example

  

Scatter Plot Graphs

Scatter graphs display data for two summaries across a single dimension. The following styles of scatter graphs are available:

• Scatter (Point) Example

  

• Scatter (Line) Example

  

• Scatter (Point and Line) Example

  

• Bubble Example

  

Stack Plot Graphs

Stack plot graphs display summary values in a stacked format. The following styles of stack plot graphs are available:

• Bar Stack Plot Example

  

• 3-D Bar Stack Plot Example
