Visualization bundle

Visualizations are an important means of conveying information from massive data. The Visualization bundle is a set of extensions that can be used to enhance and increase your Qlik Sense app's charting capacity. The extensions are optional. You do not have to install or enable them to use Qlik Sense.

Enabling extensions

You can install the Visualization bundle when you install Qlik Sense. If you need to adjust your extension installation, see: Modifying extension bundles installation.

Creating extensions

Visualization extensions are in the asset panel under Custom objects.

The following extensions are included:

• Bar & area chart extension

  Create bar charts and area charts and enhance them with transitions and connectors.

• Bullet chart extension

  A bullet chart is a gauge that can also show a target marker and a qualitative range to show performance.

• Funnel chart extension

  A funnel chart is a visual representation of the connected stages of a linear process.
