Dumbbell chart maker
Pick an indicator, two years and the countries: each gets one row, a dot for the first year and a mark for the last, so the length of the line is the change.
What you get
- Arrow or dot
- End each row with an arrowhead or a second dot, and choose whether falls show in red.
- Ranked by the change
- High first leads with the biggest rises, low first turns the order round.
- One shared axis
- Every row sits on one axis, and it need not start at zero.
- One accent
- The first country in the list wears the gold highlight and the rest stay quiet.
Questions
What do I get from the dumbbell chart maker?
One row per country between two years you choose, from the built-in data, with the source printed under the chart.
Is a dumbbell chart the same as an arrow chart?
In GeoLens one chart makes both: each row ends in an arrowhead or a second dot on the last year.
Can I make a slope chart?
Use the dumbbell: it shows the same two years per country, laid flat and ranked by the change, so long labels stay readable.
