Available display options

You can select and change the view by clicking on the tabs presented in the data display section of each dataset:

For most options, several possibilities are available to tailor the data display.

For example for the table view, one can swap the axis, change the layout configuration, set the number format etc. For further details, please consult our chapters on how to manage tables, line charts, bar charts, and maps.

Reset to default view

You can reset the view back to the default state of the dataset, meaning the way the dataset appeared when you first opened it, by clicking on the 'Default view' button located on the right-hand side above the data display section:

Resetting the view sets all settings back to default, including the visualisation mode. You will be asked to confirm again that you want to reset the dataset to its default view as you can't undo this. If you confirm, you will be directed to the table view of the dataset. 

Display limitations

The Data Browser is not able to display datasets which contain more than 750 000 cells. A cell has to be understood as any statistical data, including 'no data available' data.

If you try to display such dataset, an error message will be displayed: 'The current estimated cube size is above the limit of 750 000 cells. This may impact the speed of data rendering. It is recommended to use one of the datasets or to create a custom dataset'.

Alternatively, you can either create a custom dataset or download statistical data and structural items.
