Change a Chart's Range, Grouping, and Breakdown
Choose a chart's dates, group it by hour, day, week, or month, and break a metric down by device, source, or what its entries describe.
Updated
Every chart in Kaizora sits in a card whose heading holds its controls. The same controls work the same way everywhere.
Choose the Range
The first control names the range, such as Last 90 days. A metric’s chart and a chart of lines start at the last 90 days; a page of bars, such as Sleep’s stages or your time by activity, at the last 7; and cash flow at the last 365 days, by the month. Choose it to pick:
- a preset: Last 7 days, Last 30 days, Last 90 days, Last 365 days, This year, or All time;
- or any dates on the calendar: click the first day, then the last.
The range is kept in the page’s address, so every chart on the page shares it, and a link you copy opens on the same dates.
Group the Values
Group by sets each point or bar: By hour, By day, By week, or By month. It follows the range on its own, so a chart stays readable: by the hour over a week or less, for a metric that’s averaged, such as heart rate; by the day up to about three months; by the week up to two years; and by the month beyond. Cash flow goes by the month over anything longer than about three months, since a budget is counted by the month. Change it whenever you like.
The card’s foot says how values are combined, such as Daily totals for steps, or an average for weight.
Break a Metric Down
On a metric’s chart, Break down by splits it into parts:
- Device, to see your two scales side by side;
- Source, such as what you typed in against an import;
- or what its entries describe, such as protein by food, exercise time by activity type, or spending by category or account.
Once it’s broken down, Show lets you hide any part; the chart and its legend follow. Choose None to go back.
Read a Chart
- Point at it, or tap it, to see each value, in your units.
- A metric keeps its colour as others are shown or hidden.
- Stacked bars add up to a whole, such as a night’s stages or a day’s macronutrients, with the total in the tooltip. Lines are for values that don’t add up, such as weight.
- On a metric’s chart, your reference ranges are drawn as bands in their severity’s colour.
