đ¤ŠGradient Horizontal Bar Charts with Rounded Corners for 100th of Rows!
đđźRevolutionizing Google Sheets Charts with a Single Formula
This innovative chart defies native Google Sheets capabilities, built entirely from a single formula using SPARKLINE.Â
Why this is Cool
Unlike traditional SPARKLINE charts, which display basic lines, this clever hack uses closely placed lines to achieve a âfillâ effect, turning a simple SPARKLINE into a full-fledged chart bar.
Whatâs even more amazing? You donât need to be an expert. This chart can be generated with my Cooltables Add-on. After installation, the chart is available in the Extensions menu. This groundbreaking method is not supported natively, making it an unparalleled solution for data visualization in Google Sheets.
The bars have rounded corners, adding a sleek, modern look compared to the typical cut-edge bars in regular Google Sheets charts. This subtle detail enhances the visual appeal, giving your charts a polished, professional finish.
Transform your data representation, making your Sheets functional and visually impressive.
Setup
You need to install the add-on from Marketplace first:
https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/cooltables/542146021064
Next, move to your Google Sheets, and navigate to Extensions > Cooltables.
Use the templates section to find this template. Click to copy it to the current spreadsheet.
Another way is to use the add-on sidebar menu. You'll find the "Templates" task, and be able to browse among other templates.
Usage
To replicate this chart:
Values in Column A: Place the numerical data you want to visualize in column A. These values will determine the length of the bars.Â
Colors in Column B: Assign a hex color code to each row in column B. This allows you to customize the bar colors for each data point, achieving a gradient effect if you use different shades or any color scheme of your choice.
Load the Cooltables Add-on, apply this setup, and your chart will automatically reflect the gradient effect or your preferred colors, with the innovative filled SPARKLINE design and rounded corners.
