A spark column chart is similar to a column chart, except that it is a word-sized graphic used inline with text. Data values are plotted using vertical bars. Given that it is used inline with text, the size of the chart is same as that of the text surrounding it. This chart is not rendered with the x and y-axes. It is often used on executive dashboards to show several KPIs in a single view.
Best Practices for Spark Column Charts
- Use a spark line chart for showing variations in a measurement in a simple way.
- Use distinct colors to highlight specific data like the open, close, high, and low values.
- Determine an appropriate aspect ratio (ratio of the width of a shape to its height) to enhance the visualization.
