The visual is used to analyze the impact of various dimensions on a metric. To illustrate this, let’s take a look at an example: In the screenshot above, we are looking at North America sales of video games. Drag the Sub-Category dimension to Columns. North America Sales for Nintendo / Abs(Avg(North America Sales for Platform)), 19,550,000 / (19,550,000 + 11,140,000 + ... + 470,000 + 60,000 /10) = 4.25x
