Spline widget
Updated
The Spline widget is a graphical visualization tool that displays data as a smooth, continuous curve. It works by fitting a curved line to a set of data points rather than simply connecting them with straight lines, as in traditional line widgets, which will help emphasize trends and patterns in the data.
To create a Spline widget
To plot the Spline widget, you can use any existing editable dashboard or create a new one. Refer to this article to learn how to set up a Custom Dashboard.
Once you have the dashboard where you want to add the visualization widget, follow the steps below –
On the custom dashboard, click Add Widget in the top right corner.
On the widget builder, enter the widget's name and select Listening as Data Source.
Select Spline as a visualization type for your Listening widget.
Under the What would you like to plot on your widget section, you will be given the below fields –
X-Axis: Select the required dimension. Here Created Time will be selected by default, which will be editable.
Y-Axis: Select any metric/custom metric to be plotted on Y-axis, e.g., Mentions.
Series: You can choose any dimension to plot them in a series view, e.g. Sentiment. This will create three lines for positive, negative, and neutral sentiment.
Select the configuration options as desired. For more information, refer to the Configuration options section below.
Under the Defined Advanced Options section, you can apply filters, define additional properties and set personalized targets with these options.
Click Add to Dashboard on the bottom right corner to create your new widget.
