Sparkline Types
Sparkline Types Overview
The following table summarizes the Sparkline types.
Type
Description
Line
Displays the Line chart type of Sparkline with numeric data, connecting the data points with line segments. At least two data points have to be supplied in order to visualize the data in Sparkline.
Area
Displays the Area chart type of Sparkline with numeric data. This is similar to line type with additional step of closing the area after each line is drawn. At least two data points have to be supplied in order to visualize the data in Sparkline.
Column
Displays the Column chart type of Sparkline with numeric data. Some may refer to it as vertical bars. This type can render a single data point, but it would require specifying the minimum value range property (Minimum) in Sparkline so the supplied single data point can be visible, otherwise the value will be treated as the minimum value and will not be visible.
WinLoss
This type is similar in its visual appearance to Column chart type, in which the value of each column is equal to either the positive maximum (for positive values) or the negative minimum (for negative value) of the data set. The idea is to indicate a win or a loss scenario.
For the Win/Loss chart to display properly, the data set must have both positive and negative values.
