PreviousSmart Category Grouping
| Smart Category Grouping Imagine an excel type data grid where not all data points are available. |
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | |
| Series 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | ||||
| Series 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | ||||
| Series 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Each series will only contain the points with data. In this example, the names of data points for each series are as follows: |
| Series 1 | C | D | E | F |
| Series 2 | E | F | G | H |
| Series 3 | A | B | C | D |
| When all series do not contain points with same names, the chart will try to figure out the intended order automatically. Given the info above, it is enough to determine the correct order. Some overlap in names is required to logically conclude the correct result. |
- SmartCategoryGrouping.htmDemonstrates how unmatched datasets will be grouped in a logical way removing the need for manually specifying the order. The chart will recognize the same datasets but with missing values and order them correctly.

- Use smart data category grouping to automatically order data points of different series.
