Sparklines Module DEVELOP

The Sparklines Module largely corresponds to our graphomate sparklines component. It visualizes up to ten data series as "word-sized graphics". As per default, the Sparklines Module uses the full result set as data input; however, with the button, a smaller selection can be made. Minimum and maximum in each sparkline are depicted as red/green dots. Each individual sparkline is scaled to its own minimum and maximum; the two grey bars in the background of the sparklines give orientation aid where the depicted data is located in the overall data set. In the example above, the data for Arkansas ist located in the upper third of the result set, whereas Alabama and Alaska are located near the bottom.

Number of Elements This options governs the number of lines of data that are used to generate sparklines.

The entry in Start Element governs the first element in the input data to be displayed. If e. g. a 5 is entered, the first sparkline is generated from the fifth line of data, lines 1 to 4 are left out.

With the option Display Category Labels, category labels in front of the sparklines can be toggled on or off.

Suppress sums excludes sums from the data to be displayed.

Data in Rows governs whether the input result set is interpreted in rows or columns.
