Opinion Scale Columns

When you expand an opinion scale column it will be displayed as a standard AddMaple bar chart.

If you would like to view it as a Likert scale chart, you will need to either pivot by another column or group with similar columns.

Pivot By Another Column

To pivot by another column:

  1. Select another column (either from the related columns table, or by clicking "Add Pivot" from the More menu)

  2. By default the Opinion Scale column will stay on the left; to get a Likert scale chart you will need to swap the columns - see the video below

Pivot an opinion scale by another column, then swap to view a Likert chart.

Group With Similar Columns

If there are similar columns in your dataset (columns with the same opinion scale answers), then you can group them together with your selected column. This is possible via the "Group Columns" option from the More menu. If you can't see the column you'd like to group with then please contact support - by default AddMaple filters down to only the relevant columns able to be grouped. Learn more about managing column groups.

Group similar opinion scale columns to view a combined Likert chart.
