Simple XML for parallel coordinates

Custom visualizations use a namespaced syntax for Simple XML. Specific visualization properties are appended to the app and visualization context.

You can add a parallel coordinates visualization to a dashboard panel using Simple XML. Use this syntax to specify the app and visualization context.

<viz type="parallel_coordinates_app.parallel_coordinates">
</viz>

To configure a parallel coordinates property, add any of the following property names and a value to this syntax.

<option name=
    "parallel_coordinates_app.parallel_coordinates.[property_name]">[property_value]
</option>


Option name Accepted values Default Example
hideTicks [ true | false] false
<option name="parallel_coordinates_app.parallel_coordinates.hideTicks">true</option>
colorMode [ categorical | sequential] categorical
<option name="parallel_coordinates_app.parallel_coordinates.colorMode">sequential</option>
maxColor Any valid CSS color string. #3fc77a
<option name="parallel_coordinates_app.parallel_coordinates.maxColor">#d93f3c</option>
minColor Any valid CSS color string. #d93f3c
