Dot matrix chart? #5675

Closed jarben closed 7 years ago

jarben commented 7 years ago

Would be nice to have a dot matrix chart similar to this one: image

Ideally, dots could be replaced by svg symbols such as this: image

The layout should be vertical as well as horizontal. Maybe even radial so it is possible to generate parliament maps such as this one:

Thoughts? :)

@jarben These kinds of charts can be achieved by either scatter series, pictorial bar series, or more universally, custom series.

Hi @Ovilia , yeah, that's a good point. Although layout would need to be computed manually which is probably fine for the parliament map. I think the dot matrix chart is pretty general and could be in theory shipped out of the box? Anyway, thanks for your answer, the recent custom series is definitely so powerful!

@jarben Thanks for your advice!
