calculation, you must use the specific waterfall connector (see Waterfall chart on the following page). Standard connectors (see Series connectors on the previous page) are also available for a number of chart types and should be used in preference to universal connectors when possible. Legend In menu: Chart Menu item: A legend can be used to clearly identify the various data series or groups in a chart. A floating toolbar containing a line style and a font control (Text label property controls on page 33) appears when the legend is selected, letting you specify a line style for the legend box and the size of the legend text. In addition, chart-specific property controls for the series and groups are available. If you change the size of the legend’s frame the legend text will be automatically reformatted to fit the new frame size. To create a horizontal legend for example pull the left or right border of the frame outwards. Column chart, line chart and area chart 50
8. Waterfall chart Icon in Elements menu: A waterfall chart (sometimes called bridge chart) visualizes an additive calculation with subtotals. To create a waterfall chart, simply type the calculation into the data sheet: Positive values result in segments going upwards, negative values create segments going downwards. Subtotals – i.e. segments that go all the way down to the baseline of the chart – are easily created with an e (for “equals”). In fact, you can use e in any segment that you want to be stretched to fit the rest of the chart. All e segments are calculated by think-cell and automatically kept upto-date when data changes. You can even begin the calculation with an e in the first column. In this case, think-cell starts from the right-most column and calculates backward to find the value for the e column. Thus, the following data sheet results in the same chart as shown above: Note: The value -42 in the final column indicates that the final segment is 42 units high, with the base-line reached by going 42 units downwards. You may enter two or more values into a single column. If you have a column made up from more than one segment, you can enter an e for at most one of them.
