Trellis

The Trellis chart& is a network of small charts. It is a repetition of a chart across a grid. Generally, minimum two dimensions are used, one for the grid variable and another for the x-axis within each small chart. Users can analyze the metrics within each chart without a query (a selection) and compare with the rest of the group at the same time via a trellis chart. A chart will be shared on the same Y-axis, so it becomes easier for users to identify irregular behavior among the variables by accurately comparing the metrics across the grid.
