Quick chart

Quick chart generates a bar, pie, or line chart from a small data table and adds the chart to the canvas as real LetDraw shapes. That means you can change its colors, labels, and layout afterward.

Quick chart: data table and chart preview

More tools (⋯) → Quick chart in the bottom toolbar.

Choose the type from the switch at the top of the window: Bar, Pie, or Line. The preview updates instantly.

There are two tabs on the left:

The default is a grid (table) editor; you enter data directly into cells without writing CSV:

  • The first column holds the labels (the header cell is “Label”); each additional column is a series, with a small color box next to its header showing its color.
  • Grow the table with Add row and Add series.
  • Use the cross at the end of each row to Delete row; use the cross in the series header to Delete series (at least one series remains).
  • If you edit the series headers, they become the legend labels.

If you prefer to paste as text, use the CSV tab. Each line is a record; values are separated by commas (or tabs). The first column is the label, the remaining columns are each a series. An optional header row sets the series names:

Ay, Değer 1, Değer 2
Ocak, 30, 20
Şubat, 45, 25
Mart, 25, 40

If you provide a single column, a classic single-series chart is generated. The two tabs share the same data; a change you make in one is reflected in the other. The Sample data button lets you start with a ready-made table.

Below the data editor:

  • Title: an optional title to appear above the chart.
  • Show values: displays the numeric values on the bars/slices/points.
  • Palette: choose the chart’s color palette; the selected palette is applied to both the preview and the added shapes.
  • In the live preview on the right, you see the final look of the chart and how many data points and how many series there are.
  • Use Add to place the chart at the visible center of the canvas as editable shapes.
  • In multi-series bar and line charts, each series is drawn in a separate color and a legend is added.
  • A pie chart uses only the first series (a warning is shown for multi-series data).
  • Because the chart is made of shapes, it can be edited individually after adding and is included in PNG/SVG/PDF exports.
