# Horizontal Bars/Pins ## Overview The display style property, which can be accessed from the hamburger menu, allows the user to display any given individual metric as a horizontal bar or horizontal pin’s. It can display the scaling as bars and pins.Hover onto a metric for which the trendlines need to be applied so that the hamburger button will be displayed. Click on the hamburger button, then a menu will be opened. Hover the mouse onto ‘Display Style’, then a submenu will be opened which has the trendline charts. Please refer the below screenshot:
First, for a metric, apply the ‘Horizontal Bars/Pins’ trendline, and then format the bar/pin color and negative color. open the format window, then set the color (e.g Green). Click the ‘Apply’ button
In our case, we’re displaying sales and profits by region and year, with horizontal bars for metric “profit” and horizontal pins for metric “sales”.
### Scaling across cells for Horizontal Bars and Pins From Version 5.1.2, We have introduced a new Scaling option which can be found from the Hamburger tab in the Display Option under More Options.
The chart scaling is set to ‘Apply at each cell’ by default; to allow scaling, change the Scale option to ‘Same across cells.’ ### How Horizontal Bars or Pins Work When All Values Are the Same? The Horizontal Bars/Pins visualization represents data values using horizontal bars whose lengths and directions reflect the distribution of values within a column. The bar appearance dynamically adjusts depending on whether the column contains positive, negative, or zero values. **Display Logic** The visualization adapts based on the type of values present in the column: * All **Zero** Values:\ If all values in the column are zero (e.g., \[0, 0, 0, 0]), the bar appears empty, indicating no positive or negative data distribution. * All **Positive** Values:\ If all values in the column are positive (e.g., \[1, 1, 1, 1]), the visualization displays a full-length positive bar, representing that all data points are positive. * All **Negative** Values:\ If all values in the column are negative (e.g., \[-1, -1, -1, -1]), the visualization displays a full-length negative bar, representing that all data points are negative. The screenshot below illustrates this behavior.
