Charts and Graphs
Charts and graphs are a visual representation of data best suited for showing large quantities of data and the history of data over time.
| While charts come in many forms, the bar graph or chart is most common in vSphere Web Client. Bar charts are typically contained inside a portlet.
| In contrast to what's commonly displayed in a portlet, the Summary tab displays metric usage in a bar chart. |
Guidelines
- Provide a title above the chart that briefly describes its contents.
- Annotate the data with text, for example, by including a legend when the data contains multiple data sets.
- Use this predefined color palette:
- #8FDAF9
- #7B71C9
- #9CC617
- #448230
- #32428A
- #EEC83B
- #5E9CFF
