Grid Chart

A Grid chart is a visualization format that structures data into rows and columns, often used to display large datasets in a clear and organized way. It helps users analyze and compare different variables or categories in a structured format. While it is not as "visual" as charts like bars or lines, the Grid chart is excellent for comparing numerical and categorical data. Customization options for the Grid chart allow you to adjust both its appearance and functionality. These options can be found under the Menu. The following sections will elaborate on these options.
