Analytics (Line Chart)

The line chart supports the same analytics features as the column chart, plus additional line-specific features.

Analytics pane — Reference lines, Average Curve, and Error Bars

Reference Lines​

Available in the Analytics pane:

  • Y Constant Line — with configurable value (supports fx)
  • Min Line, Max Line, Median Line, Average Line

Each line supports styling (color, style, width, position) and optional shade areas.

Shade Area Bands​

A practical use of shade areas: enable both the Min Line and Max Line with their respective shade areas (shade below for Min, shade above for Max) to create a visual corridor that frames the data range. This clearly highlights the boundaries within which all data points fall.

Error Bars​

Same four computation modes as the column chart:

  • By Percentage, By Field, By Percentile, By Standard Deviation

With bar (whisker), marker, band, and label display options.

Average Curve​

The line chart additionally supports an Average Curve that plots the average across all series for each category point.

Data Labels​

The line chart supports two data label placement modes:

  • Force Vertical — Labels stacked vertically above each data point
  • Smart Placement — Automatic positioning to minimize overlaps with horizontal displacement

All data label settings (font, color, background, leader lines) support per-series customization through the "Apply settings to" dropdown. See the Data Labels formatting page for full details.
