Speedometer

This chart is used when the data range in which the values fall is the most important visual indicator. This type of chart does not require a dimension. A Speedometer can also include a sparkline, which is a small graph that appears beneath the Speedometer. These graphs have limited functionality but are very useful for showing trends and can be used to introduce a time element to the speedometer.

To create a Sparkline, add data to the Sparkline section on the ‘Data’ screen. If you do not want the Sparkline to be displayed, do not add data to the Sparkline section.

Example

The chart below, shows the Churn %age. Targets have been entered that colour code the chart based on different values. A Sparkline is displayed beneath the Speedometer which shows the Transaction Month.

We’ve also created a video on how to create this chart type, check it out here.

With effect from the July 2022 release:

When you hover over a value in the sparkline, the speedometer gauge will show this value. When you move away from the sparkline, the gauge will reset to the original value the gauge was at before you hovered over the sparkline.
