Pictogram

A Flourish template for creating pictogram charts

Updated 4 days ago to v6.1.0 by Flourish team

How to use this template

Pictogram charts are often more engaging and playful than a traditional bar chart (but perhaps not as precise).

This template lets you create different configurations including:

  • a single bar
  • multiple bars
  • stacked bars
  • single stacked bar

You can also:

  • specify the orientation of the bars (whether bottom to top, left to right, top to bottom or right to left)
  • add filler icons, so there's a fixed number of icons in each bar
  • use your own custom icons
  • set the value of each icon

Data sheet and bindings

There are two data sheets: "Data" and "Icons". (The "Icons" sheet is optional.)

"Data" sheet

The Data sheet has 5 bindings:

Binding name Type Description
Main category Categorical (Optional) A bar is created for each main category.
Sub category Categorical (Optional) A layer (or stack) within each bar is created for each sub category.
Value Numeric Determines the size of each bar. If the "Sub category" binding is active, this column determines the size of each layer within each bar.
Icon id Categorical (Optional) This binding lets you associate icons with particular categories. It also allows you to use custom icons.
Color Categorical (Optional) This binding specifies which column is used to color the icons.

If "Main category" and "Sub category" are left blank, the icons will appear in a single block.

If "Main category" is active a bar is created for each category.

If "Sub category" is active each bar will be stacked according to the categories in the chosen column.

The "Value" binding determines the size of each bar (or each layer if the "Sub category" binding is active).

By default the template will automatically calculate the value each icon represents, so that each bar contains a sensible number of icons (typically around 100 per bar). However the icon value can be overriden should you prefer more or less icons.

"Icons" sheet

The "Icons" sheet lets you associate icons with particular categories.

There are 4 bindings:

Binding name Type Description
Icon id Unique Specifies a column containing unique ids. The names in the "Icon id" binding of the "Data" sheet should match these ids.
Icon Text Either a string containing the name of a built-in icon (e.g. "cat", "dog") or an SVG path string (e.g. "M10, 10 l90,0 l0,90 l-90,0 z".
Icon width Number (Optional) If an SVG path string has been specified this column contains the width (in pixels) of the icon.
Icon height Number (Optional) If an SVG path string has been specified this column contains the height (in pixels) of the icon.

You can see the available built-in icons in the API information below.

Example

By default the "Data" sheet looks like:

Energy Source (2019),Consumption (TWh)
Hydropower,10455
Wind,3540
Solar,1793
Biofuels,1102
Other renewables,1614

The default bindings are:

Binding name Column
Main category A
Sub category
Value B
Icon id A
Color A

This results in 5 bars, one for each energy source. Each bar is sized according to the Consumption column. The energy source column (A) also determines the icon shape and icon color.

Pictogram chart with 5 bars

The default "Icons" sheet looks like:

id,icon,width,height
Hydropower,"M562.1 383.9 ... z",576,512
Wind,"M352.57 128 ... z",512,512
Solar,sun,,
Biofuels,leaf,,
Other renewables,"M458.622 255.92 ... z",512,512

The default bindings are:

Binding name Column
Icon id A
Icon B
Icon width C
Icon height D

SVG path strings have been defined for "Hydropower", "Wind" and "Other renewables" and built-in icons are used for "Solar" and "Biofuels".

Settings

The main settings are:

Settings section Setting Description
Chart settings Bar orientation Sets whether the bars are vertical or horizontal
Flip bars Flips the bar direction. For example, if bar orientation is "Vertical" and "Flip bars" is true, the bars will point downwards.
Icons Icons Sets whether the Icon binding (if set) determines the icon shapes. Otherwise this setting determines the shape of all the icons.
Auto icon value If true, the template will compute a sensible value for each icon.
Icon value If "Auto icon value" is false, this setting determines the value of each icon.
Use filler icons If true, extra "filler" icons will be added to the end of each bar, so that all bars are the same length.
Maximum bar value (Optional) If "Use filler icons" is true, this sets the maximum value of all bars. Filler icons are used to fill space between the actual maximum and the chosen maximum.

Ideas

Multiple bars

Set the "Main category" binding. A bar will be created for each unique category in the chosen column.

You can set the icon of each bar by using the "Icon id" bindings in the "Data" and "Icons" sheets. (Typically the "Icon id" binding in the "Data" sheet will point to the same column as the "Main category" binding.)

Pictogram chart with multiple bars

Multiple bars with filler icons

As for "Multiple bars", but with filler icons switched on:

A single "stacked" block of icons

You can create a single block of "stacked" icons by setting the "Sub category" binding (and leaving the "Main category" empty). You'll also need to set the "Icon id" binding and/or the "Color" binding to see the separate layers.

Multiple "stacked" bars

If your data has at least two categorical columns you can create a Pictogram chart with multiple stacked bars by setting the "Main category" and "Sub category" bindings to different columns.

For example, if your data looks like:

Source,Year,Consumption (TWh)
Hydropower,1970,3263
Wind,1970,0
Solar,1970,0
Biofuels,1970,0
Other renewables,1970,71
Hydropower,2019,10455
Wind,2019,3540
Solar,2019,1793
Biofuels,2019,1102
Other renewables,2019,1614

you could set "Main category" to "B" and "Sub category" to "A". Remember to set either the "Icon id" or "Color" binding to the "Sub category" column so that you can see the separate layers:

Pictogram chart with multiple, stacked bars

You can set the "Icon id" to achieve different effects:

Icon id Description
None All icons are the same shape.
Same as "Main category" Each bar has a unique icon shape.
Same as "Sub category" Each stack within each bar has a unique icon shape.

Similary for the "Color" binding:

Color Description
None All icons are the same color.
Same as "Main category" Each bar has a unique color.
Same as "Sub category" Each stack within each bar has a unique color.

The "Icon id" and "Color" bindings are independent. So you can, for example, set each bar to a unique color and use different icons for each stack within a bar:

Pictogram chart with multiple, stacked bars

A single block of icons

You can create a single block of icons by having a single row of data in the "Data" sheet:

Energy Source (2019),Consumption (TWh)
All,18504

and setting the "Main category" binding to a categorical column.

Pictogram chart with single block of icons

You can also use a custom icon by setting the "Icon id" binding and defining an appropriate icon in the "Icons" sheet:

id,icon,width,height
All,"M458.622 255.92 ... z",512,512

Pictogram chart with single block of custom icons

A single block of icons with filler icons

Create a single block of icons as described above. Set "Use filler icons" to true and set "Maximum bar value" to a value greater than the current bar value.

This section documents API usage specific to this template, so for an introduction we suggest you refer to the generic API documentation instead.

template: @flourish/pictogram

version: 6

Template data

There are three different formats in which you can supply data to this template. The most convenient for you to use likely depends on the source of your data, as described below.

1. Array of arrays, and a bindings object

You can supply arrays of arrays to opts.data, which might look like:

{
    data: {
        data: [
            [ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
            [ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
            [ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            [ "IconsColumn1Value1", "IconsColumn2Value1",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value2", "IconsColumn2Value2",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value3", "IconsColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ]
    }
}

where each array of arrays represents the rows in a data sheet.

To tell the API how the values from each column should be associated with the keys that the template is expecting, you must also supply an object attached to opts.bindings. (The meanings of the keys in the bindings object are documented below.) The minimal bindings you can supply for this template are as shown in this example:

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    bindings: {
        data: {
            
        },
        icons: {
            id: 0, // index of a column in your data
            path_string: 1, // index of a column in your data
        }
    },
    data: {
        data: [
            [ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
            [ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
            [ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            [ "IconsColumn1Value1", "IconsColumn2Value1",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value2", "IconsColumn2Value2",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value3", "IconsColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ]
    }
}

All possible bindings that you can supply are shown in this example:

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    bindings: {
        data: {
            main_category: 0, // index of a column in your data
            sub_category: 1, // index of a column in your data
            values: [2, 3, ...], // index(es) of column(s) in your data
            icon_id: 4, // index of a column in your data
            color: 5, // index of a column in your data
            metadata: [6, 7, ...], // index(es) of column(s) in your data
        },
        icons: {
            id: 0, // index of a column in your data
            path_string: 1, // index of a column in your data
            width: 2, // index of a column in your data
            height: 3, // index of a column in your data
        }
    },
    data: {
        data: [
            [ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
            [ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
            [ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            [ "IconsColumn1Value1", "IconsColumn2Value1",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value2", "IconsColumn2Value2",
            [ "IconsColumn1Value3", "IconsColumn2Value3",
            ...
        ]
    }
}

2. Array of objects with arbitrary keys, and a bindings object

This format is most likely useful when you have data from an external source, such as CSV data loaded from d3-dsv. You should supply this attached to the opts.data, which might look like:

{
        data: [
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ]
    }

... but with the keys being the column headers from your source data instead. You must also supply an object attached to opts.bindings. The minimal bindings you can supply for this template are as shown in this example:

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    bindings: {
        data: {
            
        },
        icons: {
            id: "IconsHeader1",
            path_string: "IconsHeader2",
        }
    },
    data: {
        data: [
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ]
    }
}

All possible bindings that you can supply are shown in this example:

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    bindings: {
        data: {
            main_category: "DataHeader1",
            sub_category: "DataHeader2",
            values: ["DataHeader3", "DataHeader4", ...],
            icon_id: "DataHeader5",
            color: "DataHeader6",
            metadata: ["DataHeader7", "DataHeader8", ...],
        },
        icons: {
            id: "IconsHeader1",
            path_string: "IconsHeader2",
            width: "IconsHeader3",
            height: "IconsHeader4",
        }
    },
    data: {
        data: [
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ],
        icons: [
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            { "IconsHeader1": ..., "IconsHeader2": ..., ... },
            ...
        ]
    }
}

(As before, the keys containing "Header" would be replaced by column names from your data source.)

3. Array of objects with template-defined keys

There is an alternative format you can use, which is likely to be easier to use if your data is not from a spreadsheet source. With this alternative format you supply your data to the template as an array of objects, attached to opts.data, where the keys must be those used by the template, as documented below. In this case there is no need to supply a bindings object, since the key names are already those expected by the template. The required properties in the data object are as follows (scroll down for a description of what each property is):

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    data: {
    data: [
        {
            values: [...],
            metadata: [...]
        },
        ...
    ],
    icons: [
        {
            id: ...,
            path_string: ...
        },
        ...
    ]
},
    ...
}

And the full list of all possible properties is as follows:

{
    template: "@flourish/pictogram",
    version: "6",
    data: {
    data: [
        {
            main_category: ...,
            sub_category: ...,
            values: [...],
            icon_id: ...,
            color: ...,
            metadata: [...]
        },
        ...
    ],
    icons: [
        {
            id: ...,
            path_string: ...,
            width: ...,
            height: ...
        },
        ...
    ]
},
    ...
}

Meanings of the template data keys:

  • data.main_category: The (categorical) column that defines the categories along the main axis.
  • data.sub_category: The (categorical) column that defines the categories within each bar.
  • data.values: (Optional) Choose numeric columns to determine the size of each bar. If more than 1 is chosen, a dropdown will appear in the visualisation which lets the user choose.
  • data.icon_id: IDs for joining icons in the "Icons" datasheet. Must contain IDs that match "Icon ID" values in "Icons". Set to the same column as the Main category or Subcategory.
  • data.color: The (categorical) column which determines the icon color. Set to the same column as the Main category or Subcategory.
  • data.metadata: Makes additional columns (text, emoji, image URLs, etc) available in custom popups.
  • icons.id: Unique ID for joining icon path strings. Must contain IDs that match the "Icon ID" values in "Data".
  • icons.path_string: Icon path string (e.g. "M10,10 l80,0 l0,80 l-80,0 z") or the name of a built-in icon (e.g. "female").
  • icons.width: Icon width (in pixels).
  • icons.height: Icon height (in pixels).
