Displaying a heat matrix

Heat matrices can help identify areas for further analysis, such as peak periods of activity. You can change the time scale to help identify any patterns or trends. You can see how events occur, for example, over days or months.

  1. On the New page of the Bar Charts and Histograms pane, click the words (as Histogram) to open a histogram.
  2. From the Heat Matrix list, at the top of the Histogram window, select a heat matrix to display.
    For example, the Date & Time:Day of Week heat matrix shows the number of occurrences of an event on days of the week.
  3. Optional: Select a scale from the Scale list at the top of the Histogram window.
    Note: The Scale list is available only when results contain date and time information without a predefined scale.
  4. Optional: Select whether to use the chart time zone or the time zones on each chart item from the Timezones list at the top of the Histogram window.
    Note: The Timezones list is available only when results contain date and time information.
  5. Optional: Customize the display of the heat matrix by changing the heat matrix options.
