Qualitative Chart
Qualitative analysis groups data by alphabetical matching, so that entries with the same qualitative attributes (e.g., "rough", "smooth") are grouped and their unweighted or weighted quantities counted.
To create a Qualitative chart:
- Select Qualitative/Quantitative > Chart
from the Analysis ribbon. - The Qualitative/Quantitative Analysis dialog appears. Select Data Column from the drop down. The corresponding available data values appear under Allocated Items.
- Select the Qualitative radio button.
- Select any items you want to include using the Allocated Items checkboxes. You can quickly select all or none using the Select All and Unselect All buttons.
- Optionally, select the Weighted checkbox if you would like the counts to be representative of weighted Quantity values (i.e. Quantity x Weight).
- Select the Chart Type from the drop down.
- Click OK to create a new chart.
At least one item must be selected.
- Unallocated data is grouped under "OTHER".
- Blank data is grouped under "[No Value]".
