The flexible table chart type
The table is your dashboard workhorse: pick the metrics you need, show difference columns, make it readable with heatmaps and conditional formatting — and export to Excel and natively editable PowerPoint, with formatting preserved.
DataLion's table chart type shows counts, percentages by row, column and total, valid %, mean, median and index. It supports subcolumns, difference columns, in-cell heatmaps and conditional formatting, plus flexible sorting. Tables export to Excel and natively editable PowerPoint — with formatting preserved.

Counts, percentages, mean, median and index
The DataLion table shows exactly the number you need: counts (absolute values), percentages by row, column and total, plus valid % that cleanly removes missing values from the base.
For metric questions you add mean and median, and the index relates each cell to the total sample — so you spot over- and under-represented groups at a glance. Several metrics can sit side by side as subcolumns.
- Counts and percentages by row, column and total
- Valid % with missing values removed
- Mean and median for metric questions
- Index against the total sample
Subcolumns and difference columns
Place groups right next to each other: with subcolumns you compare target groups, regions or waves in a single table. A difference column computes the change between two columns and shows it right alongside — no side calculation.
That way you read the development wave by wave straight from the table. When you need complete banners and significance testing, the crosstabs page has you covered.
- Subcolumns for groups, regions and waves
- Difference columns show the change right alongside
- No helper columns, no side calculation
- For banners and significance: see crosstabs
Heatmaps, formatting, sorting — and export
Make the table readable at a glance: color cells as an in-cell heatmap or flag outliers with conditional formatting by threshold. Sort freely by any column, ascending or descending, so the most important values sit on top.
And the best part: tables export to Excel and as natively editable PowerPoint — with the formatting preserved. For more on colouring, see the conditional formatting page.
