Vertical bar charts

Introduction

Vertical bar charts, or distribution charts, can be used to show the distribution of values of a numerical field. The bars are displayed vertically. See the illustration below for an example.

In a vertical bar chart, you select the field for which you want to display values on the X-axis. The Y-axis is used to display the variable values defined by a metric. By default, the metric displayed on the Y-axis is the record count. If you want to display a different value, you can choose a different metric.
