Word cloud
Word clouds are visualizations in which the size of the labels represents a quantitative variable.
In most cases, this is not a recommended visualization, as other types of charts allow for a more accurate and efficient comparison of the quantitative values plotted.
However, the word cloud can be a good choice when we want to highlight the most important concepts or terms in a set.
How to
To create a word cloud:
- Link the categorical variable to "Labels"
- Link the quantitative variable to "Size"
- In "Marks" choose "None"
- In the "Layout" selector choose "Avoid overlap".
