# Treemap Charts

### **Chart setup to build a treemap chart**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Axis

Drag the dimension to plot on the axis (e.g., Sub Category).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Values parameter**

Drag the measures to analyze (e.g., Actuals, Plan).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Chart type**

Select **Treemap** from the Hierarchy section of the  Chart Type dropdown menu.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

> Treemap charts visually represent the proportions of different categories as nested rectangles and are ideal for hierarchical data. Explicit measure configuration is not required.

### **1. Drill down for treemap charts**

You can add more than one dimension to the Axis parameter and group categories to create a hierarchy. You can then drill down to view the chart at a higher granularity.

### **2. Customization and formatting under Canvas settings**&#x20;

#### 2.1. Tile

You can choose from a range of built-in tile layouts.

#### 2.2. Expand all level

This option is applicable only when there is more than one axis dimension. When this option is enabled, clicking the individual drill-down icon will drill display all the categories in the next lower level of the hierarchy.

In the gifs below, notice how the treemap is rendered for all the Subregions across all Subcategories when **Expand all levels** is enabled. When this option is disabled, the treemap is rendered for the specific category on which we perform individual drill-down i.e. when we click the individual drill-down icon for Mineral water, the treemap is rendered for Mineral water only.

#### 2.3. Measure grouping

When you render multiple measures in a treemap, you can segregate the measures into separate category groups by enabling the **Measure grouping** option.

<div><figure><img src="/files/dLGhB8h4cFT9pdcx8DZk" alt=""><figcaption><p>Treemap with measure grouping enabled</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/7UuPfCYRd3NWmfqc52VZ" alt=""><figcaption><p>Treemap with measure grouping disabled</p></figcaption></figure></div>

When measure grouping is enabled, additional options are available to customize the header.

#### 2.5. Inner padding

You can regulate the padding between the measures for a particular category.

#### 2.6. Outer padding

You can set the padding between different category groups.
