Visualization bundle

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

Enabling Visualization bundle

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

Visualization bundle charts

Visualization bundle charts are in the asset panel under Custom objects.

The following charts are included:

  • Funnel chart

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

    A chart that shows KPI for multiple dimension values to quickly understand and track performance.

  • Pivot table

    A flow chart diagram chart visually emphasizing major transfers or flows within defined system boundaries.

    A table that allows app developers to create tables that can be customized by users who do not have edit permissions.

    Creates a trellis chart based on a master visualization.

    Shows the variance between two measures over the different values of a dimension.

Deprecated charts

These charts have been deprecated. Existing instances of these charts will still function, but new ones cannot be added.

Limitations

Visualization bundle visualizations have more limitations than built-in visualizations, such as bar charts. The following limitations are valid for all visualizations from Visualization bundle:

  • The user interface of the visualization is not localized to the language that Qlik Sense is using.
  • Right-to-left reading order is not currently supported.
  • Accessibility features are not currently supported.
  • It is not possible to edit objects from an object bundle supplied by Qlik with Dev Hub.

The following table shows which additional features are supported, or not supported, for all bundled objects.

  • Printing

    Printing a visualization made in an object.

  • Qlik NPrinting

    There is an On-Demand reporting control. However, visualizations made in some objects cannot be used in Qlik NPrinting reports.

  • Download

    Download as image, PDF, or Excel.

  • Storytelling

    Using a snapshot of a visualization created with an object in a story.

  • Alternate states

    Making different selections on the same dimension, and comparing the selections in a single visualization or in two or more visualizations side by side.

Information noteExported radar charts will not include the chart legend.
