Charts

In this chapter, you can find all the different types of charts offered by Squore, and the options available for each of them.

There are many types of charts. The best approach to finding the chart you want to use on your dashboard can be found by answering the following questions:

  • Should my chart display a trend or reflect the data for a single version of my project?

  • Is the information I want to display about the current artifact or about its descendants?

  • Will my chart display one bit of information or combine several?

  • Is the information displayed by my chart quantitative or qualitative?

Answering these questions will lead you toward the type of chart you want to use. The table below shows the type of answer offered by each of the charts available in Squore:
