More MicroCharts: Especially horizontal bar charts
It would be good to have more MicroCharts to design Dashboards and Reports.
Especially horizontal bar charts (Variance Charts) would be nice. I use them all the time to indicate positive or negative variances.
In Excel they are made with conditional formatting of cells or via external sparkline plugins. Perhaps even the sparklines plugin from sparklines-excel.blogspot.com/ could be integrated into Jedox Web.

Hi, we are not planning to implement a further extension of microcharts at this point in time.
Jedox, wake up! You are literally decades behind on the visualization options. Horizontal bar-charts in a micro-chart-style is just one thing missing. That is a shame, as it would be very useful for the effective communication of quantitative data.
One other option could be to implement the excel data bars as conditional formatting. This wouldn't be as nice as a horizontal bar microcharts but could be a workaround if implemented.
What is the status of this request one year later?
Simple deviation micro charts - showing the deviation inside one single row only - would be urgently needed.
This is still the one thing missing, which makes it impossible for me to generate my reports with the great batch-pdf features!
It is really frustrating that I have to load each individual report in Excel, save it as pdf and mail it, only because this basic chart cannot be generated in Jedox Web.
