Bar Charts, Pie Charts and Doughnuts

If you’re planning on doing a comparison then it’s hard to beat the clarity offered by a chart. Our new infographics library has many chart objects so it’s just a matter of dragging and dropping your desired chart. Charts include

  • Bar charts

  • Line charts
  • Area Charts
  • Pie Charts
  • Doughnut charts
  • Bubble charts
  • Percentage bars

And changing them is simple as editing a text box. Lets explore further using an infographic 🙂 .

All the above mentioned charts can be modified by simply double clicking on the object and changing the text. It’s never been this easy to create infographics online.

USA Maps to Create State Based Infographics

Other than a map object that contains all US states the USA map library have different objects for every state. Because the whole map is a collection of state objects you can can easily add styling to individual states. Below is part of an infographic created for hurricane Sandy. You can clearly see individual styling for separate states.

Our world maps library include a world map, separate objects for all continents and separate objects for some countries. As with the USA map each continent can be styled differently. Below is a world map with Olympic medal distribution.
