A dataBlock is similar to a table, but much more powerful. It holds a group of series that scroll together through time, and offer instant graphical views as well.
dataBlocks have two roles in dataZoa:- In the dropZone, they are the natural way to show your account's dataseries.
- As a type of independent display, they can be tweaked, published, shared, etc., just like a traditional Chart or Table.
dataBlock Tour
DataBlocks hold one or more series:
Grouping and Ordering
How are dataBlocks formed? Series can form a dataBlock because they were:
* Dragged in from the Web as a group, using the dzDot * Manually uploaded as a group * Explicitly grouped by you
This means that dataBlock membership can change dynamically, but you can drag a dataBlock to a new or existing tab and fine-tune the dataBlock there.
