1. What is data visualization?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the era of big data, visual dashboards<\/a> have become an important tool for business decisions.<\/p>\n

A series of means of visually presenting complex and abstract data in a more understandable form is called data visualization<\/a>. Data visualization is designed to enable people to quickly understand the meaning behind the data.<\/p>\n

In addition to visual features, data visualization has the characteristics of communication and interaction.<\/p>\n

2. What is data visualization for large\u00a0screen?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The visual dashboard design with large screen as the main display carrier is called data visualization for large screen. It features large areas, cool dynamic effects and rich colors. The dashboard for large screen can be used for information display, data analysis, monitoring and early warning.<\/p>\n

3. What are the application scenarios for large screens in the enterprise?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In order to make you better understand the concept of data visualization for large screen, I will list some application scenarios for large screen in the enterprise.<\/p>\n

4. How to get started with data visualization for large\u00a0screen?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Here I take the data visualization tool FineReport<\/strong><\/a> as an example to teach you some basic skills, so that you can quickly and effectively learn to make a cool dashboard for large screen.<\/p>\n

FineReport provides enterprises with digital large-screen solutions. It can easily create cool dashboards for large screen without special customization, and it supports centralized control of multi-scene large screens. And its personal version is completely free, you can download it<\/strong><\/a> safely to practice visualization techniques.<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s start from the basics of dashboard design.<\/p>\n

4.1 Learn about basics of dashboard design<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u2460Description<\/strong><\/h4>\n

FineReport<\/a> uses a canvas-style operator interface, which is specially designed for large screens and mobile terminals. It can help users build a powerful and comprehensive \u201cmanagement cockpit\u201d with a simple drag and drop operation. The dashboard design mode of FineReport has many advantages:<\/p>\n

1) multiple layout methods: adaptive layout, absolute layout and Tab layout;<\/p>\n

2) abundant visualization components: report block, charts and widgets;<\/p>\n

3) component linkage: click on one component, and others reload data correspondingly;<\/p>\n

4) data monitoring: change of data at the back end can be detected automatically and the dashboard will refresh to update the changes;<\/p>\n

5) carousel: different charts can be switched in carousel mode in the same component.<\/p>\n

\u2461Dashboard interface<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Open the designer and click File > New Form\u00a0<\/strong>to create a new dashboard template, as shown below.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The dashboard has many components like parameter interface, blank block, chart, etc. To help you understand the meaning of each component, I add all the components to the same interface.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

-Parameter interface: <\/strong>Drag this element to the canvas, and you will get a panel for filtering data in report blocks and charts. You can add widgets to the panel.<\/p>\n

-Blank block: <\/strong>Blank blocks contain tab layout blocks, absolute layout blocks and report blocks.<\/p>\n

A tab layout block can display different component in tabs and realize component switch in carousel mode.<\/p>\n

An absolute layout block makes the size of element fixed.<\/p>\n

A report block resembles a regular report, and the data is displayed within the extent of the component.<\/p>\n

-Chart: <\/strong>All chart types supported in regular reports can be dragged to the canvas for data visualization.<\/p>\n

-Widget: <\/strong>A widget is a component that filters data. It can be added as part of a parameter interface or as a separate component.<\/p>\n
