Attributes added to a radar plot are represented by an axis originating from the center
of the plot. Data values for the selected records are then plotted as points along the
axis, connected by lines to form a polygon. By comparing the polygons, you can identify
similarities and difference in the selected records across the specified properties.
-
Select the properties you want to plot in the Axes panel,
and set the required axis scale options.
The axis scale is relative to the minimum and maximum values across all records in
your search results.

Select records from the record list to add data to the plot.
Data from the records you select is plotted, and the record names are added
to the plot legend.
