How to visualize several yes/no questions in one diagram

Hey everybody,

 

 

 

I try to visualize the results of a survey. I have five columns, which are all filled with yes or no. Now I want to create a diagram that shows for each of the five colums the amount of the answer "yes". Thus, the diagram should show the amount of yes answers for question 1, question 2, question 3, question 4 and question 5.

 


Best,


Tobias

If @bblais is correct, which I imagine he is given your description, go to the query editor and select the responder column.  Right click and select "Unpivot Other Columns" (rename Attribute and Value if you want).

 

Close and apply, then create a visual (bar chart works well here) and add Attribute to axis, Value to legend, and Value to value (changing it to count for the aggregation):
