# Filter Chart

As of version 5.1.2, the Vitara Filter Chart has been added to our collection of Vitara charts. The main function of this chart is to control the play animation of multiple charts by selecting them with the target visualization. The animation speed can be changed by rotating the settings cog wheel to the right of the seek line.

Click on the empty available space under the filter chart to return to the usual view for all charts. 1 Attribute and 1 Measure are required. Eligible charts include metric and attribute drop zone maps. The following example shows how a single filter chart can manage a grid, pie chart, and word cloud.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.vitaracharts.com/readme/filter-chart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
