Proportional layout
The Proportional layout is most useful when you have a chart with a sequence of events. It displays an accurate representation of when items occur in relation to each other. This layout can help to gain an understanding of how events occur in real time, but can result in wide charts with items spaced far apart.
When you import data, for example telephone calls, the Proportional layout provides an initial view of how the events are spread in time before you apply other layouts.
By using a Proportional layout, you can:
- Apply the layout to the entire chart or just a selection of chart items
- Specify how the chart width is determined
