Radar charts (or radar plots) are useful for visualizing and comparing three or more quantitative variables. For example, we can use a radar chart to compare students' grades in each course to the class average.

How to create a radar chart in XLSTAT?

XLSTAT enables you to create and customize radar plots thanks to several options:

Variables or Images: XLSTAT allows you to select variable names in two forms: as text or as images. You simply have to copy and paste images to the Excel cells in the column containing the labels.

Data: You can select one or more columns containing the variable(s) to plot on the radar chart.

Chart type: XLSTAT allows you to customize your radar chart:

  • Classic: Enable this option to display a classic radar chart.
  • With points: Activate this option to display a radar chart with points.
  • Filled: Activate this option to color the different shapes, each shape representing a variable, of the radar chart.
  • Polar Graph: Activate this option to display a polar chart.

Group variables: Activate this option to group variables on the same chart.

Labels: Enable this option to display labels on the radar chart.

Axis Values: Enable this option to display the axis values on the chart.
