Why we picked it When you want to show a trend or a comparison instead of a raw figure, this poster tells you which chart fits the relationship you are showing. You start from what you want to say (change over time, ranking, part to whole) and it points to the right chart. Keep it bookmarked as a quick decision aid.
FT Visual Vocabulary
