Overview

Implements a layout for stacked visualizations, ranging from simple stacked bar charts to more elaborate “streamgraphs” composed of stacked areas. Stack layouts uses length as a visual encoding, as opposed to position, as the layers do not share an aligned axis.

<p>Marks can be stacked vertically or horizontally. For example,

vis.add(Rubyvis::Layout::Stack)
  .layers([[1, 1.2, 1.7, 1.5, 1.7],
           [.5, 1, .8, 1.1, 1.3],
           [.2, .5, .8, .9, 1]])
  .x(lambda { index * 35})
  .y(lambda {|d| d * 40})
.layer.add(Rubyvis::Area)

specifies a vertically-stacked area chart, using the default “bottom-left” orientation with “zero” offset. This visualization can be easily changed into a streamgraph using the “wiggle” offset, which attempts to minimize change in slope weighted by layer thickness. See the offset property for more supported streamgraph algorithms.

<p>In the simplest case, the layer data can be specified as a two-dimensional array of numbers. The x and y psuedo-properties are used to define the thickness of each layer at the given position, respectively; in the above example of the “bottom-left” orientation, the x and y psuedo-properties are equivalent to the left and height properties that you might use if you implemented a stacked area by hand.

<p>The advantage of using the stack layout is that the baseline, i.e., the bottom property is computed automatically using the specified offset algorithm. In addition, the order of layers can be computed using a built-in algorithm via the order property.

<p>With the exception of the “expand” offset, the stack layout does not perform any automatic scaling of data; the values returned from x and y specify pixel sizes. To simplify scaling math, use this layout in conjunction with Rubyvis::Scale.linea} or similar.

<p>In other cases, the values psuedo-property can be used to define the data more flexibly. As with a typical panel &amp; area, the layers property corresponds to the data in the enclosing panel, while the values psuedo-property corresponds to the data for the area within the panel. For example, given an array of data values:

crimea = [
{ date: "4/1854", wounds: 0, other: 110, disease: 110 },
{ date: "5/1854", wounds: 0, other: 95, disease: 105 },
{ date: "6/1854", wounds: 0, other: 40, disease: 95 },
...

and a corresponding array of series names:

causes = [:wounds, :other, :disease]

Separate layers can be defined for each cause like so:

vis.add(pv.Layout.Stack)
  .layers(causes)
  .values(crimea)
  .x(lambda {|d| x.scale(d[:date]})
  .y(lambda {|d,dp| y.scale(d[dp])})
.layer.add(pv.Area)

As with the panel &amp; area case, the datum that is passed to the psuedo-properties x and y are the values (an element in crimea); the second argument is the layer data (a string in causes). Additional arguments specify the data of enclosing panels, if any.

Constructor Details

#initializeStack

Constructs a new, empty stack layout. Layouts are not typically constructed directly; instead, they are added to an existing panel via Rubyvis::Mark.add
