ptcs-chart-waterfall

Visual

Overview

ptcs-chart-waterfall is a compound component for visualizing data as Waterfall charts.

Waterfall charts visualize changes to data. A bar in a waterfall chart can either represent:

  • A summary, where the bar shows the current value
  • A positive change
  • A negative change

Optional connector lines can be added to emphasize that each bar represents a change to the same value.

Similar to other chart components, the Waterfall chart also has areas for a title, notes, legend, x-axes, y-axes and zoom controls.
