I have collected shift data for a few years, and I want create a very good page that gives transparency to expected annual/monthly production when factors like number of shifts run or efficiency per shift is improved. Standard line graph on an XY chart could show a basic 1 dimensional output expectation. I want add transparency to decisions and facilitate good decisions, or relaying impact of performance really well. I think if I can show a range, it might do that. I thought maybe overlapping rectangles on an xy chart. ---

Have you looked through various [Apexcharts](https://apexcharts.com/) charts? Maybe something like Radar, Polar Area, or something dashboardy. > [@KyvisLabs ApexChart Module](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/kyvislabs-apexchart-module/55263): > > Hello All, We have been working on a few modules lately, one of them being an Apex Charts module. We have been using this module for certain clients for the last few months, and in a few home automation systems, mine included. We will be releasing the source code for these modules in the coming weeks, just working on a website and the github. Commercial support is also available through an integration partner. There are a few variants in the component tree already, and I can answer any que… ---

Is it possible to do a Radar chart on Perspective? That might be really good. I am low on the totem and can't add modules, but that is a great module. * * * Please, when login infinite loop is fixed, help me upvote radar chart in perspective please. [Radar Chart for perspective | Voters | Inductive Automation](https://ideas.inductiveautomation.com/ignition-features-and-ideas/p/radar-chart-for-perspective)] In the meantime, I expect there is a way to create a scatter plot that looks like a radar plot that might not be too hard to make? * * * Just saw a downtime by time radar chart that looked like such a great idea as a 24hr clock. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/4/14198eae63206a7d42c6c3a50416d0734e1eccdf.png) ---

There is a Perspective radar chart on the exchange. [Ignition Exchange | Inductive Automation](https://inductiveautomation.com/exchange/2159/overview) ---

I finally got that radar view open. It won't work for me I think. I don't know how to hook it up to one datasource, and I will need 24 points to do the clock thing. Probably someone else could use it, but I think I would have to spend a lot of time to get it working. ---

You can create a radar plot with the Apex Charts module [Radar Chart Guide & Documentation – ApexCharts.js](https://apexcharts.com/docs/chart-types/radar/) ---

I am not allowed to add modules at this time. I am too low on the totem. Also not sure how to bind a query dataset to that too if I had it. Maybe each series would need a query.
