About the Pyramid Chart Type

Pyramid chart types use a triangle diagram to represent hierarchies visually. The triangle is divided into sections, illustrating vertically top-down and broad-narrow structures and processes.

Dashboard designers can set these pyramid chart properties:

Table 13-8 Pyramid Chart Properties

Setting	Description
Legend Position	Choose Left, Right, Top, Bottom, or None.
Value Scale	Especially useful for large numbers, you can scale how a value is displayed. For example, if the value is 1,689,000 and you select K - Thousand as the scaling option, the chart displays the value as 1,689K. Your scaling options: None: No scaling is applied. Auto: The value is displayed based on its range. For example, 1,500 displays as 1.5K, 1,689,000 displays as 1.69M, 42,314,531,211 displays as 42.31B, and 1,234,567,891,234 displays as 1.23T. K - Thousand: The value is displayed as thousands units. For example, 1,689,000 displays as 1689K. M - Million: The value is displayed as millions units. For example, 123,456,789 displays as 123M. B - Billion: The value is displayed as billions units. For example, 12,345,678,912 displays as 12B. T - Trillion: The value is displayed as trillions units. For example, 1,234,567,891,234,567 displays as 1,234T.
