04 Sep Master Hierarchical Data in Omniscope with Tooltips and Drill-Down
We’ve just added two new features to Omniscope that we think you’re going to love: interactive tooltips with dynamic content and drill-down navigation. Together, these features give you fresh ways to dig into your data, uncover insights, and present it all in a way that’s clear, engaging, and surprisingly fun.
First up, tooltips. Forget boring little data labels. With this update, tooltips are now fully customisable. You can embed charts, add images, link to external resources, or throw in some rich text—all directly inside the tooltip. Picture this: you hover over a bar in a chart, and a mini pie chart pops up, breaking down extra details. It’s like giving your data a second layer of storytelling, right where it matters.
Now, combine that with the new drill-down feature, which lets you explore your data step by step. Start broad, like looking at total sales, then drill down into specific categories, subcategories, and products. It’s a super intuitive way to navigate complex datasets without feeling overwhelmed. You see the big picture, and then zoom in on the details, all in a few clicks. Drill-down works across Tile, Bar, and Pie Views, so you’ve got flexibility no matter how you like to visualise your data.
Quick Insights, Easy Exploration, and Engaging Reports
- See More, Faster: Tooltips now serve up extra data on the spot. No more jumping around between views or losing track of what you were looking at. Everything you need is right there when you need it.
- Navigate Data Like a Pro: With drill-down, you get to explore data hierarchies at your own pace. You decide how deep to go. And with breadcrumb trails, you always know exactly where you are in your data journey.
- Make Your Reports Pop: These features don’t just make your life easier; they make your dashboards look way cooler and more professional. You’re not just presenting data; you’re telling a story, and you control the narrative.
Getting Started
Tooltips: Head to your view’s tooltip settings, turn on “Show Chart Inside Tooltip,” and pick what you want to display. Add views, images, text, links—go wild. It’s all up to you.
Drill-Down: Choose your view (Tile, Bar, Pie – or even the “Zoomable” Sunburst), set up your data hierarchy in the Split section, and start exploring. Customise the breadcrumbs to keep track of your path, and play around with how child elements are displayed in the Tile View.
Why These Features Work Better Together
When you mix interactive tooltips with drill-down, you get a powerful combo that makes data exploration both deep and dynamic. You can start broad, zoom into specifics, and get instant visual context through tooltips. It’s like having a data conversation that’s as insightful as it is engaging.
No fluff, just solid, smart features to help you dig into your data and discover the stories waiting to be told.
