sap.suite.ui.microchart

This library contains controls to visualize charts and diagrams that are lightweight and easy to use.

Note

The following sections only provide additional information for some of the controls. For a complete list of all controls and their documentation, see the API Reference and the Samples.

MicroCharts give a quick overview of customer-defined key figures like KPIs as graphical items and display the current status of defined key figures or thresholds.

The different values can be visualized in the charts by a semantically-colored representation and can be defined by the customer to correspond to the significance of the figures. For example, you can display critical statuses in red or you can display thresholds in specific colors to represent the significant values of your business data.

MicroCharts have a responsive design and can adapt their appearance and functions to the screen size of the devices. In the responsive mode, if MicroCharts are included in further controls (for example generic tiles or flex boxes), the control adapts to the available space provided by the parent control.

Note

You can include a MicroChart control into a GenericTile control in the responsive mode only. However, if you define a width, a height, and size properties, this data is overwritten and the responsive mode is used.

Prerequisites

With the new sap.suite.ui.microchart library, the available MicroChart controls of the sap.suite.ui.commons library have been moved to their own library with SAPUI5 version 1.34.

  • If you have already included a MicroChart control before SAPUI5 version 1.34, a wrapper ensures that the embedding still works for each control. To benefit from all enhancements or new features for the MicroChart controls as of SAPUI5 1.34, you need to switch to the controls to the new library. With SAPUI5 1.34, all MicroChart controls in the sap.suite.ui.commons library are marked as deprecated. The respective controls are as follows:

    • AreaMicroChart
    • BulletMicroChart
    • ColumnMicroChart
    • ComparisonMicroChart
    • DeltaMicroChart
    • HarveyBallMicroChart
    Note

    During the move, the following controls and their elements have been renamed:

    • MicroAreaChart to AreaMicroChart
    • ComparisonChart to ComparisonMicroChart
    • BulletChart to BulletMicroChart
