2 for 1 - Using Dual Axes

in , ,

When creating a visualization it is important to be able to display as much information, whilst at the same time keeping the information clear and succinct. Using dual axes are a great way to display two measures on a single visualization, particularly useful for comparison of trends between the two measures. Dual axes give you the option to display two measures with two quantitative scales on a single axis (either the x or the y axis) regardless of their units. In Bime, bar, column, line and area charts can all accomodate dual axes and they are extremely simple to create.
