# Multi Measure Radar

The **Multi Measure Radar Chart** displays multiple numeric measures on a common set of categorical axes (dimensions) arranged in a circular layout.  
Each measure is plotted as a connected line (or filled area) radiating out from the center, allowing quick multi-variable comparisons for each category.

**Use cases:**
- Comparing **multiple KPIs or measures** across the same set of categories.
- Visualizing **performance scores or benchmarks** against multiple criteria.
- Highlighting **outliers and gaps** across several metrics on a single radial chart.

<Aside>
Ideal for situations where you want to display **multiple numeric values across consistent categorical dimensions**.

## ⚙️ Setup

<Steps>
1. Drag the **Multi Measure Radar Chart** widget from the chart library onto your designer workspace.
2. Select the chart.
3. Go to the [Widget Configuration](/insights-v8/guide-to-infoboard-designer/customize-panel/configure/) tab in the Configuration panel.
4. Under the Configuration panel tab, select the [Basic Configuration](/insights-v8/guide-to-infoboard-designer/customize-panel/configure/#basic) option to access essential settings for the Multi Measure Radar Chart.
5. Select the [Source](/insights-v8/guide-to-infoboard-designer/customize-panel/setup/#sources) from which the chart will fetch its data.
6. Map:
   - **[Measure](/studio-v8/datasources/measures-dimensions-and-hierarchies/)** — One or more numeric values to be plotted as individual lines on the radar.
   - **[Dimension](/studio-v8/datasources/measures-dimensions-and-hierarchies/)** — Categorical values placed along the angular axis.
7. (Optional) Add a **Date** field for time-based filtering.
</Steps>
