Using Qviz Options¶
The Qviz framework provides various UI elements that enables you to select among the different visualization types, and also enables you to customize the visualization by using the Plot Builder option. These options are available for visualizations that are created with dataframes (Spark and pandas), and with SQL magic.
Visualization Types¶
Qviz framework provides the following visualization types:
- Table
