Treemap Chart

🧱 Treemap Chart – Big Picture Through Nested Blocks

The Treemap Chart in Lowcoder transforms hierarchical data into a space-efficient, nested rectangle layout, where each block’s size and color reflect the data it represents. It’s ideal for spotting proportions, distributions, and dominant categories in complex datasets.

📊 Best Used For:

• Visualizing budget breakdowns

• Market share comparisons

• Categorized performance metrics

• File system/storage analysis

🧩 Sample Data Format

Treemap data uses a hierarchical JSON structure:

{
  "name": "Categories",
  "children": [
    { "name": "Marketing", "value": 30000 },
    { "name": "Engineering", "value": 50000 },
    {
      "name": "Sales",
      "children": [
        { "name": "Domestic", "value": 20000 },
        { "name": "International", "value": 25000 }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Each node can include a value (to determine block size) or children for nesting.

⚙️ Key Configuration Options

• Chart Type: Drag “Treemap Chart” from the components section onto Editor's View

• Node Size: Determined by the value field

• Hierarchy Depth: Supports multiple nested levels

• Tooltip Display: Show name, value, or percent on hover

🎨 Styling & Customisation
