Abstract
An electronic device displays a chart, which includes visual marks that represent calculated values derived from a set of data, and panes formed by intersection of rows and columns. A current focus is on a first visual mark at a first position. The device concurrently displays a chart-calculations-options area, which includes display options for the type of calculation and the type of data partitioning. Visual marks in a first set of visual marks are visually distinguished from other visual marks. The first set of visual marks includes the first visual mark, and corresponds to a first selected option for the type of calculation and a first selected option for the type of data partitioning. The device detects an input that selects a second option for the type of data partitioning. In response, the device visually distinguishes visual marks in a second set of visual marks in accordance with the selection.
