## What it is for

A bar, line, area or pie chart, or one big number, drawn from a table and redrawn as it changes.

## How it helps

No more exporting to make a graph: the chart reads the table on the desk and changes when the rows do.

- **Exporting just to make a graph?** Then doing it again next week
- **A Chart, on the desk** Pick a table and a column
- **Drawn from your rows** Bars, lines or a pie
- **Redraws itself** Whenever the table changes
