In our previous blog we have learnt embedding of Power BI tiles in PowerApps. Now, in this blog we’ll learn Charts in PowerApps.
Charts are used for graphical representation of data. It can usually be read more quickly than the raw data. In PowerApps there are below types of charts:
- Column Chart – A column chart is a data visualization where each category is represented by a rectangle, with the height of the rectangle being proportional to the values being plotted. Column charts are also known as vertical bar charts.
- Line Chart – It is a type of chart which displays information as a series of data points called ‘markers’ connected by straight line segments. It is also called line plot or line graph or curve chart.
- Pie Chart – A Pie Chart is a is a circular statistical graphic, that uses pie slices to show relative sizes of data.
