Three-axis tiles are used for closed-end or open-end numeric multi-column tables where a response is given for every cell, or because the question is a two axis table in a loop, adding a third axis through iteration. These questions are only displayed as grids (tables) in a Topline report, and as such, differ from two-axis (summary) tiles that are displayed as grids.
For information on two-axis (summary) tiles' grid display options, see Closed-end two-axis (summary) display options.
To customize a three-axis tile, click the Gear icon in the title bar.
This reveals a menu with nested options. These options are:
| Chart Title | |
|---|---|
| Default | The default chart title, as defined by the question text, row text in the case of a table, or a desc tag if available. This is the default selection. |
| Custom | Allows users to specify custom text to use as the title. When selected, the Title text box appears, which allows the user to enter a new description. |
| Show Label | |
| Average | Displays the average of the option codes for each question cell (default). |
| Std. Dev. (SD) | Displays the standard deviation for the set of values in this data field. |
| Variance | Displays the variation for the set of values in this data field. |
| Median | Displays the median response value for each question cell. |
| Max | Displays the maximum value entered in this data field. |
| Min | Displays the minimum value entered in this data field. |
| Percentile | Calculates and displays a value for the specified percentile. |
| Box (% of Base) | Displays values selected in this menu as a percentage of the selected base size for the whole tile. |
| Count (N) | Displays the number of respondents (N) that chose each option. |
| Packages |
There are a great many configuration options available for Topline tiles. To make these options easier to manage, it is possible to save sets of option selections so that they may be recalled together. These groups of options are called packages. |
| Filter |
To define a data cut that applies to a single tile only, use Filter. Different filters can apply to different tiles within a single Topline Report, as opposed to the data cut defined by the Record Selector, which applies to every tile in a Topline Report. |
| Analyze | |
| Compare By |
Compare By is a tool that allows users to view data from a given question through the lens of Comparison Groups created from another question. The comparison groups create an additional axis of data which is used to create a graphical cross-tabulation between the original question and the selected Compare By question.
|
| Indexed Filter |
Indexed filters are a type of data cut. They are designed to allow the comparison of like-for-like responses for different verticals with a single data cut. Rather than create a logical expression for each question row or question column in the Data Cuts applet and manually apply each one to its own Topline tile, an indexed filter can automate the process. It only requires a single expression to be written, and automatically tailors the expression to each column or row within the tile to which it is applied. |
Three-axis tiles can only be exported as Excel documents.
