Trellis plot
Trellis plot is useful for finding the structure and patterns in complex data. A trellis plot is a layout of smaller charts in a grid with consistent scales. Each smaller chart represents rows that belong to a corresponding category. The grid layout looks similar to a garden trellis, hence the name trellis plot.
There are two ways to add a trellis plot, visualized below:
- click on the Trellis plot icon in the toolbox, and then customize the inner chart by clicking on the "gear" icon on the left
- create a viewer that you want to eventually become an inner chart, customize it the way you like, and then click
on
Viewer | Use in Trellis
Developers: To add the viewer from the console, use:
grok.shell.tv.addViewer('Trellis plot');
Typically, you want the data split by one or two columns. Use combo boxes on top of the control for that. Note that you can split data by one column per dimension.
To change the inner viewer type, click on the viewer icon in the left top corner. To edit inner viewer's settings, use the "gear" icon next to it.
Trellis Plot automatically picks up element renderers for rendering categories. For instance, this is how it looks for chemical structures after performing R-Group Analysis:
