Plot icons in a timeline

[emoreira]

Hello All,

I have a use case where I want to display different issues that happened in a machine throughout the day in a timeline to see concentrations of issues of the same type.

Does anyone have an idea of an approach to do it?

Cheers

You can use a XY or a Label Chart, put on the X axis the hour of the day ( 0..24 ) and on the Y axis the repetition times number.

of course you will need multiple series in order to map different types of issues.

Thanks Carles,

Tried it but I don't seem to be able to make the Icons appear.Tried a state based formatting and the series formatting itself and did not succeed so far.

Also tried the event chart. Still struggling.

Hello All,

I was able to get it working!

I only needed to use one data series, which I got from pulling the data from a Value Stream:

There is some configuration on the widget to be done but once I figure it would it was really easy:

Main trick was to change the marker size to control the Icon Size. Its default value is 3 so the icons are tiny.

Then I applied some State Based Formatting:

The result (not final) is something like this:

Every icon in the timeline is a different type of issue

Thanks Carles Coll​ and Bogdan Mihaiciuc​ for the tips.

Cheers
