How To Use

Input Parameters

The top row has to contain your column names. Your variable names have to be the first three values of this first row. These first three will be entered as axis labels in the ternary plot.
The axis labels are placed in counter-clockwise order: First column: top, second column: left, third column: right. Note that you have to keep the order of the your three column names consistent between points, lines and areas. You will get a warning when the column names are not consistent between different tables.

Other parameters, like color, opacity or shape also have to be named to in the top row, but do not need to be in any specific order. If you are confused, try reloading the page and taking a good look at the example data!

Enter the values directly and the proportion of each value will calculated. Note that a dot . is used as a decimal separator. Also do not enter the percentage symbol (%)!

You have to enter three values for a point, line or area to be plotted.

Different lines and areas are seperated by one empty row. Only the first row of a line's or area's style parameters are read. The optional parameters on following rows won't be read.

Save data for next time

Values entered in the tables are saved automatically in your browsers storage. So when you come back to this page later, you'll be asked whether you want to load these values.
This web app runs completely on the client-side using JavaScript, so your data never leaves your computer. Put another way, your entered values are not transmitted to any server and are only stored locally on your machine.

Optional Keywords
