There are limited graphing capabilities in Pigment today vs. what’s available in Powerpoint, for example.

  1. You can not do multi-axis graphing feature today in Pigment.  An example of stacked bar of loan balances and then adding the yield trends in %s on top.
  1. Even on a single axis graph, you can not do a trend line graph on top of a stacked bar
  2. There are some valuable features from Think-cell plug-in to Powerpoint that would be helpful in Pigment (https://www.think-cell.com/en).  Below is an example of showing % increase between the stacked bar (a think-cell feature)

 

Also, given that you guys are Pigment, we would have expected more color palette options for graphing but it’s very limited at the moment when we have various data points :)

 

Hello ​@Ken Y. ,

Thank you for sharing your feedback and ideas around enhanced data visualization in Pigment.

Let me address each of your requests:

Multi-axis graphing: Pigment does support Combined Charts, where you can display bars and lines together. You can also enable a secondary axis for line series, which allows you to plot values with different scales. At the moment, the secondary axis isn’t available for bar series, so a stacked bar with a line on a secondary axis is supported, but trend lines over a stacked bar are not.

Trend line overlays: Native trend lines on charts are not currently supported. A possible workaround is to calculate the trend or % change as a Metric and then display it as a line or as labels on the chart.

% increase between stacked bars (Think-cell style): This feature isn’t built into Pigment today. However, you can achieve something similar by modeling the % change as a separate Metric and displaying it directly on the chart.

Color palette options: Pigment provides 9 preset color themes, and Workspace Admins can also create a custom Workspace Color Palette with up to 24 colors. While this is somewhat more limited than presentation tools like PowerPoint, it should give some flexibility for brand-aligned visuals.

We recognize that some of the features you mentioned are not available yet. I’d encourage you to share these requests in our Ideas section, where the product team tracks customer feedback for future improvements.

Thanks again for raising these points! I remain available if you have any question.
Best,
