Abstract
The various embodiments described herein include methods and devices for interactive data visualization. In one aspect, a method is performed at a device with a touch-sensitive surface and a display. The method includes displaying a first chart with one or more visual marks corresponding to a first dimension and a first measure. The method further includes determining whether a detected touch input is in a first region corresponding to the first dimension or in a second region corresponding to the first measure. If the touch input is in the first region, the method displays a plurality of dimension options, and, in response to selection of a respective dimension option, adds a second dimension through an animated transition to display a second chart. At least one visual mark in the first chart is split into a plurality of visual marks in the second chart through the animated transition.
