Chart Management

Sometimes a dataset is better modeled by multiple different charts. Additional charts can be added to a Sheet in order to accommodate this. Not only does each chart save its own set of options, but contains its own filters on the data. Different charts can filter the underlying dataset in different ways without affecting the other charts.

Charts can be added to a sheet via the sheet menu (looks like the spreadsheet filename).

Add, rename and delete charts from the sheet menu

Add Chart

Add a new chart to your sheet through the Add Chart menu option in the sheet menu.

Rename Chart

Rename the currently selected chart through the Rename Active Chart menu option in the sheet menu.

If a sheet contains many charts, renaming each chart is helpful for keeping track of them.

Select Active Chart

Select the active chart in the Sheet from the chart select dropdown, which is to the right of the Sheet menu dropdown.

Renaming charts helps to differentiate them if there are many charts in a sheet

Delete Chart

Delete the active chart through the Delete Active Chart option in the sheet menu.

Note

Deleting a chart that has been shared will also remove all shares. Any shared links or tags will no longer work.
