CDP Data Visualization lets you apply independent axis to
trellised visuals. Trellis charts are very powerful visualization tools. However, they do not
work well when one trellis partition contains values that are several orders of magnitude
larger than in other trellis partitions. The charts that represent segments with smaller
values are very difficult to interpret. You can mitigate this problem by enabling independent
axis.
On the right side of Visual Designer, click the
Settings menu.
In the Settings menu, click
Trellis.
To enable independent axis scale, choose the relevant option.
Depending on the type of visual, this option may appear as one of:
Independent Dimension Scale
For Bar, Lines, Areas, Grouped Bars, and Box Plot visuals, to make dimension
scale independent, navigate to the Trellis menu, and select
Independent Dimension Scale.
Independent Measure Scale
For Box Plot visual, to make the measure scale independent, navigate to the
Trellis menu, and select Independent Measure
Scale.
Independent Aggregate Scale
For Bar, Lines, Areas, and Grouped Bars visuals, to make the aggregate scale
independent, navigate to the Trellis menu, and select
Independent Aggregate Scale.
Independent X Scale
Independent Y Scale
For Scatter and Histogram visuals, to make the X and/or Y scales independent,
navigate to the Trellis menu, and select
Independent X Scale and/or Independent Y
Scale.
Scale independently across trellis
For Gauge and Bullet visuals, to scale independently across trellis, navigate to
the Trellis menu, and select Scale independently
across trellis.
Independent scales
For Map visual, to scale independently across trellis, navigate to the
Trellis menu, and select Independent
scales.
Independent date scale
For Calendar Heatmap visual, to make the date scale independent, navigate to the
Trellis menu, and select Independent date
scale.

scale.
