Chart2/ChartTypes
From Apache OpenOffice Wiki
< Chart2
- This list is based primarily on the List of wished enhancements for Charts.
- However, I will also present a number of new features not covered in the original list.
- Some other issues are detailed on the statistics wiki page, too.
Higher Priority
Histograms
This is further discussed on the stat wiki page;
- covered by issue http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=49971
- see also http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=55
- bivariate histograms: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=38
complex:
- scatterplot + histogram: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=78
- back-to-back: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=136
- equal counts: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=89
- frequency polygon: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=101
Box Plots
Box-plots (complementing stem-leaf plots and histograms) are some of the most useful and most used graphical methods in statistical data analysis. Every professional package should be able to draw box-plots.
- Simple Boxplots: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=45
- actually, boxplots are usually drawn in BW
Various Boxplot Derivations (although these are lesser priority):
- Boxplot-derivatives: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=102
- Violin Plot: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=43
- Complex Charts: box-plot + whiskers + smooth polygon, http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=140
See also Issue 13184.
Venn Diagrams (Overlapping Data)
- While there is a workaround for many current issues, there is NO method to display overlapping data in OOo;
- see stat wiki page and wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagrams)
- see also http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=62197
Gantt Charts
- see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantt (including the External links - Software section)
- R-packages: plotrix; Gantt Project: http://ganttproject.sourceforge.net/
- covered in http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10704
Negative value in a percent chart
- Currently in a percent chart, negative values are represented as positive values. So negative value are not correctly represented
- covered in http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=64691
Smooth or not each curves independently
Smooth area chart
Pie chart with a second bar chart
- In order to detail the most important sector.
- covered in http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=64694
Pie chart with a second pie chart
- In order to detail the most important sector.
- covered in http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=64695
Combined charts
- It's impossible to fix which series will be in bar and which other in line. It only depends on their order.
- covered in http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=27363
Ballon Plot
Surface Chart
3D Pie Chart with different heights for different pieces
- Please Don't Do It
- Pie charts with different heights have been deemed among the worst graphics representations. The extra-dimension does NOT bring any additional information and annihilates the main concept behind the pie chart.
11. Features that appear meaningful should have meaning. [...] Consider the three variations on a pie chart in Figure 2, all of which attempt to display the same data. The towering slices in the multi-height design (Figure 2A) are the chart's dominant features, but in many published examples have no meaning. The less exotic 3D pie chart (Figure 2B) has problems of its own.
