Added from Insert on the editor’s rail; configure it in Card settings, in its Data and Format tabs.
When to use it
Section titled “When to use it”Columns for one measure, a line for another — classically volume vs rate (revenue bars, margin % line). Enable dual axis in Format → Axis so each measure gets its own scale.
Field wells
Section titled “Field wells”| Well | Accepts | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| X Axis | dimension | |
| Values (Y) | measures | multiple measures = multiple series; each has a quick-calc dropdown |
| Series / Color | dimension | splits each value into one series per category value |
| Small multiples | dimension | one mini-panel per value (trellis) |
| Tooltip | fields | extra fields shown on hover |
Click a field in the Fields list, or drop it on the chart, and it goes to the well that fits it — see where a field goes. To choose the well yourself, drop the field on it or use its + Add field.
Measure wells carry a quick-calc dropdown (running total, YoY %, % of total, …); SquareX measures are listed with the fields, under Measures.
Format options that matter here
Section titled “Format options that matter here”- dual axis
- per-series chart-type assignment
- axis titles for both scales
The full panel is described in Charts & formatting.
- Label both axes — unlabeled dual axes are the #1 way combo charts mislead.
