14. Data selection
Analytics+ offers you multiple data selection features to emphasize specific data points:
Single click action: Highlight any particular data point by clicking on it.
Lasso: You can use drag selection to analyze a specific range of information, such as the profits generated over the last quarter of the year.
Reverse lasso: Similar to the lasso feature, you can use drag selection to exclude a certain range of data from your analysis. For example, exclude the months with the maximum revenue and focus on the months with low performance.
Legend-based: Use this option to emphasize the data for a specific category. Click on the relevant category in the legend to highlight it.
Sync highlight: Analytics+ visuals can talk to each other - if you have multiple Analytics+ visuals on the same page, data selections in one visual will be reflected in the others as well.
Zoom: Drag and select any section of a chart to zoom in. Zooming can be horizontal, vertical, or in both directions.
Data selection is possible only in reading mode.
1. Single click action:
In the area chart, when we select the July data point for 2022 Actuals, notice the effect on the rest of the data points and measures.
2. Lasso:
We've used lasso selection to drag and highlight the data for May, June, and July. Notice how the data labels are displayed only when the data point has been selected.
3. Reverse lasso
We've used reverse lasso selection in this case, to highlight the data excluding the April - July range.
4.Legend-based
We can highlight a particular category - in this case, we've clicked on the 'Mineral Water' category in the legend to highlight it in all the trellis panels.
5. Sync highlight
When we use the sync highlight option - the data points selected in one Analytics+ visual will be mirrored in the other visuals as well. Notice how the June data point selection has been reflected in the cards as well
