For this week's Makeover Monday, I created a dashboard to better explore the data set. Here's a video highlighting how to take advantage of all the filters in the dashboard.
Hi, I've just seen your updated version (which looks great by the way) and I saw you added a button to toggle between metrics. How did you do this please?
Hello, thanks for your interest! I used the optional metrics feature to enable the toggle. Here's the Data Studio Help Centre Article on it - https://support.google.com/datastudio/answer/9484925?hl=en
Thankyou so much. I must have somehow missed this feature. Very useful. By the way the sunshine hours one is fantastic. Can't wait for you to publish this. Creating these is beyond me so rely on clever people like you to make them. Thanks again and keep up the great work your doing
For this week's Makeover Monday , I made a 4 sided radar chart in Data Studio (DS) with the built in area chart. Note: This method works well for 4 sided radar charts but may not work with more variables due to limitations within Data Studio 1. Data Preparation Date for X values An area chart in DS requires a date for the X axis and a metric for the Y axis. Since I wanted to put Spring/Fall on the Y Axis and Winter/Summer on the X axis, I had to convert the Spring/Fall percentages to dates. I did this by choosing Jan 1 2019 (an arbitrary date) to be "0" and added/subtracted by the percentage point to get the final date values. Use a top and bottom area chart My area chart is actually composed of two area charts - one for the top and bottom. The reason for this is because DS doesn't handle negative Y values well and the background colour gets affected. You'll get something like Figure 1 if you use a negative Y value and it would be a hassle to fix the ba...
A couple weeks ago, I went on my first trip to Japan (solo). It was a very rewarding experience but I had my share of unexpected events that I had to deal with. Part 1: Tokyo - Asakusa, Shinjuku Day 0 - Canada / US / Japan I had difficulties even at the start of my journey because I tried to bring a hiking pole as part of my carry-on. Security wouldn't let me through with it. The airport storage fees were too expensive so I decided to test my luck and left my hiking pole in a washroom stall. Sadly, I never saw it after that .. On my flight from Chicago to Tokyo, I realized how much I hated long distance flights. It was especially rough because the person sitting in front of me decided to maximize their chair's recline. On a positive (?) note, I set a record of watching 5 movies on the flight. I thought American Airline's flight food was better than my previous experiences with Air Canada, although I couldn't say it really impressed me....
Quickness in action indicates interest ie. eating tasty food quickly - even if you don't have previous memories (samskaras) about food running out. Controlled, deliberate, measured slowness combined with intentionality of action is power Gratitude is the act of selectively cultivating happiness or reframing negatives to neutrals or positives It's amazing how nothing comes to mind and thoughts disappear like bugs scuttling away when you shine a light on them. (Light = attention, focus, or an intention to speak or write cohesively)
