Configuration

The plot configuration panel allows you to customize various aspects of the plot's appearance. You can access it by clicking the settings icon above the plot.

Labels show the values for each vertex of the triangle. You can customize their appearance in several ways.

By default, labels are positioned at the vertex of the triangle. When enabled, labels are positioned at the center of the axis rather than at the vertex.

The angle (in degrees) at which each label is displayed relative to its vertex. Adjust this to prevent label overlap or improve readability.

  • Positive angles rotate clockwise
  • Negative angles rotate counterclockwise
  • Default is A: 0, B: 60, C: -60

The distance each label is positioned from its vertex. Larger values move the label further from the vertex.

Control the size of the label text. This affects all vertex labels simultaneously.

Ticks are the marks and values shown along each axis of the plot.

Choose how many decimal places to display in tick values:

  • 0 decimals (e.g., 40%)
  • 1 decimal (e.g., 40.5%)
  • 2 decimals (e.g., 40.52%)
  • 3 decimals (e.g., 40.523%)

You can also choose between:

  • Decimal format (e.g., 0.405)
  • Percentage format (e.g., 40.5%)

Note: When using many ticks with decimal format, you may need to increase the number of decimals to avoid duplicate values.

Set how many ticks appear along each axis. The specified count is only a hint; the scale may return more or fewer values depending on the domain

The length of the tick marks extending from each axis.

Customize the color of the ticks for each axis independently.

The angle (in degrees) at which tick labels are displayed. Adjust this to prevent overlap or improve readability.

Control the size of the tick label text for each axis independently.

Gridlines help readers trace values across the plot.

Set the number of gridlines for each axis. This determines how fine the grid will be. The specified count is only a hint; the scale may return more or fewer values depending on the domain

Customize the color of the gridlines for each axis independently.

Configure the plot's background appearance.

Toggle whether the plot background should be transparent. This is useful when embedding the plot in documents or presentations.

Toggle whether to show an outline around the plot.

When enabled, ensures that no plot elements (points, labels, etc.) extend beyond the triangle boundaries.

Choose the color of the plot outline when outline is enabled.
