Pareto Chart

Plot a pareto chart for qualitative analysis of your data.

You can use this widget to run a pareto analysis on your data. A pareto chart is a combination of colums/bars and a line graph. The colums/bars represent individual values, and are arranged in a descending order. The pareto line represents the cumulative total of the values. This visual arrangement helps to identify the most important factors in a given dataset in order to make critical decisions.

The pareto chart widget is available under INTEGRATION > CHARTS. When designing application pages, drag-and-drop GEParetoChart to a container.

The following list of properties are specific to this widget. For common properties, refer to Page Components.
