Symbol Bump Chart Tutorial
Bump charts are effective for showing changing rankings across multiple dates. For large datasets, consider grouping lines using colour and symbols.
How
- Select 'Symbol Line' under 'Line' as the Chart Type
- Create Calculated Field named 'First name only label':
CASE WHEN Year T = MIN(Year T) OVER(PARTITION BY Name) THEN Name END
- Drag 'Year' to Y-Axis
- Drag 'Rank' into 'X-Axis'
- Drag 'Name' into 'Series'
- Turn on Tooltips.
- Drag 'National Count' into 'Tooltip Field 1'. Click on the field -> Format -> Display as 'Number'.
- Drag 'National Count' into 'First name only label'.
- In Chart Properties, configure the following:
- General -> Line Thickness: Medium
- Legend → Portrait View Legend Position: Top
- Legend → Landscape View Legend Position: Top
- Gridlines -> Zero Line Color: FFFFFF
- Gridlines -> 'Hide All Grids' checked
- Gridlines -> 'Remove Min/Max/Avg Lines' checked
- Data Label Settings -> Text as '%_TOOLTIP2'
- Value Scale (Left) -> Title: Rank
- Value Scale (Left) -> Max: 5 (if only top 5)
- Value Scale (Left) -> Include Zero: No
- Last Value Projection -> Project Using: No Projection
- Multi-Period Projection > Projection Controls: Hide
- Hover Text Settings -> Hover Text as
%_SERIES_NAME | %_CATEGORY_NAME: %_TOOLTIP1 babies
