Step Plot – Introduction

A step plot, also known as a step chart or stair plot, is a type of data visualization that is particularly useful for showing data that changes abruptly at specific points. It is similar to a line plot but emphasizes the discrete changes in the data values. 

Step 1: Once data is imported, click on the statistics tab.  

Step 2: Drag and drop the step plot node onto the main screen. Connect the two nodes. (Refer to the image below).  

Step 3: Once a successful connection is made between ‘data import and step plot’, click on the “x” and “y” dropdown to choose the X and Y axis of the plot. You can also choose Position of Steps from the drop down. (Refer to the image below). 

Step 4: Once the x and y axis has been selected, click on the run button to run the workflow. Click on the “Show Results” on the bottom line to view the result. 

Step 5: The data is reflected in the form of a step plot. (Refer to the image below). 

Note: After configuring a node, ensure you click “Save” to retain the changes. If you need to undo the configuration, click “Discard.” Failing to choose either “Save” or “Discard” will trigger a warning pop-up. (Refer to the image below).
