Turn your numbers into a clear visual (comparisons, trends, proportions and breakdowns) without touching a spreadsheet or writing any code.
Charts are available on the Business plan.
How charts work in Limecube
Limecube gives you a library of ready-made charts. You pick the one that suits your data, then fill in your own numbers, labels and colours. The chart's design and the maths behind it are already built, so there's nothing to configure beyond your own content.
Adding a chart
- 1In the editor, open Add Elements and choose Charts from the Basic group.
- 2Drop it onto your page. The settings panel opens showing Choose your chart.
- 3Click the chart you want. The panel switches to that chart's own settings.
- 4Fill in the fields with your data.
We offer a range of charts, and the picker shows every one available to your site. To try a different one, click Choose a different chart at the top of the panel. If you see 'No charts are available yet, please contact support.', get in touch and we'll enable them for your site.
Filling in your data
Every chart has its own set of fields (titles, labels, values, colours and display options). Because charts are built individually, the exact fields differ from one to the next, and each field has a small ? beside it explaining what it does.
A few rules apply to all of them:
- Type numbers as plain numbers. No currency symbols, no thousands separators: use
1500, not$1,500. If a chart needs a currency symbol it will have its own field for it. - Use a full stop for decimals:
12.5, not12,5. - Lists of values go in one field, separated by commas: for example
10,20,30,40. Don't add spaces after the commas. - Labels and values must line up. If you enter four labels, enter four values, in the same order.
Tips
- Check your chart on the live page, not just in the editor. Charts draw themselves in the visitor's browser, and a mistyped number often only shows up once it's rendered.
- Keep labels short. Long labels get cramped on phones, so abbreviate where you can.
- Fewer data points read better. Five or six bars communicate more clearly than twenty.
- Charts follow your site's colours where the chart offers a palette option, so they'll match your design automatically.
- Charts show the numbers you type in. They don't connect to a spreadsheet or update on their own, so revisit them when your figures change.
