Play Animation

PreviousPattern FillNextPlot lines/Reference lines

Last updated 6 months ago

The option ‘Play By First Attribute’ causes Vitara charts to display the chart for each element of the first attribute at a specific time instant. We can take a break at any time.

Note:To enable the ‘Play Animation’ option, at least two attributes must be present in the chart.

Steps to enable ‘Play Animation’ feature in dossiers:

Drag the ‘Play Axis’ attribute you want to apply into the ‘Play Axis’ drop zone.

Drag one of the attributes into the ‘Play Axis’ drop zone to enable the ‘Play Animation’ feature. In the above example, I used the month attribute as the play axis.

Click on play button to run the ‘Play Animation’ feature.

Customizing Play Animation

We can modify the speed of the play axis upto 0.5X, 1.0X, 1.5X,2.0X. If we want the play axis to play continuously, we can enable the Loop option.

Click on the settings button which is right edge of the play axis. Select the speed required.

Retain Points

Retain point (First,Last but one) feature now moved under Play Axis tab which can be accessed from property editor window. When we select the ‘First’ option under retain point, the first elements are displayed in comparison to the final elements. The “Last but one” will similarly compare the final element with the play sequence’s last element.

This feature can be used to compare the trend in the play animation.

The following vitara charts supports play animation feature:

Bar chart, column chart, pie chart, line chart, area chart, tornado chart, spark line chart and funnel chart.

The following charts don’t support play animation feature:

Stacked bar/column,simple kpi, grid, waffle, slope chart, dumbbell and angular gauge.
