How do you produce a chart like this

Is it possible to produce a chart like this?
A possible data set could be "spending catagories" vs "months"

There is no practical way to do it in splunk automatically.
You should code a custom web interface module which uses some charting library to draw it. It's not gonna be simple but dev.splunk.com will help you a lot in that. You'll need a great deal of JS skills, though.

Although, if you know the specific charting libraries they use for that, perhaps you could extend Splunk like this:

http://g.raphaeljs.com/ has a dot graph that looks similar to what you are looking for. You could wrap this into a module if you wanted to and should reduce the work somewhat.

Guess it will have to be a feature request then 🙂
