Analytics Pane: Trend properties /highlight values
Hi
I'm trying to figure out what all of the analytics options for line chart are doing.
When Ienable the "use highlight values" option, I don't see any change on the chart.
The tooltip for the hightlight option says "use highlight values to calculate the trend line". I did not find any documantation on that.
What does this mean?
Thanks.
Hi, Anonymous
When interacting with other visual objects, data points in line charts are usually to be filtered directly rather than highlighted.
So this option is usually used for visuals like bar charts where highlighting can be easy to achieve.
I have made a sample of bar chart highlighting for your reference.
You can find, as introduced by tooltip, that if you enable "Use highlighted values", only the highlight values in bar are used for the calculation of the trend line when the bar chart is interacting with the line chart .
