When to use it
Section titled “When to use it”Bars sorted biggest-first with a cumulative-percentage line climbing over them — the 80/20 chart. It answers “how few categories account for most of the total?” at a glance: read across the line to find where it crosses 80%.
Field wells
Section titled “Field wells”| Well | Accepts | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Category | dimension | |
| Value | measure | |
| Tooltip | fields | extra fields shown on hover |
Measure wells carry a quick-calc dropdown (running total, YoY %, % of total, …); SquareX measures drop in like any field.
