Chart Separation

This tutorial tells use the DataFrame to save data back to disk

Separate by Factor

SeparateByFactor() will separate the chart into a grid of subcharts based on the bar groups. It takes in an integer as the number of columns in the grid. If empty, it results in a single-column grid.

Unfortunately, there are some limitations to the usage of this function. The Separate by Factor function can be used with a certain amount of columns and/or factors. And that number is unique to each chart. The following chart displays some of the possible combinations of factors and/or columns. It has the column input with numerical and nonnumerical data and the factor input columns.

Can you use SeparateByFactor with these inputs?

Separate by Series

SeparateBySeries() will separate the chart into a grid of subcharts based on the legend (series). It takes in an integer as the number of columns in the grid. If empty, it results in a single-column grid.

Unfortunately, there are some limitations to the usage of this function. The Separate by Series function can be used with a certain amount of columns and/or factors. And that number is unique to each chart. The following chart displays some of the possible combinations of factors and/or columns.
