## DESCRIPTION

d.vect.chart displays charts for GRASS vector data in the active frame on the graphics monitor.

## NOTES

The charts are positioned as follows:

- vector points: on point position
- vector lines: on line centers
- vector areas: on area centroids

Bar charts are placed with their lower edge starting from the y-coordinate of the feature being symbolized, and centered with respect to the x-coordinate. The -c flag can be used to center the bar chart in both x and y directions.
The 'sizecol' parameter is proportionate to the radius.
The optional max_ref parameter accepts a list of values that represent the maximum value for each column listed in the values for the parameter columns. These values are used to create a framed bar plot if ctype is bar (See Example 2).

## EXAMPLES

### Example 1

    d.vect.chart map=vectmap columns=cens51,cens61,cens71,cens81

### Example 2

Create framed bar graphs of an erodibiliy index from the SPEARFISH dataset.

    r.to.vect -s -v in=erode.index out=erode_index feature=area
    v.extract in=erode_index out=erode_index_ctrds type=centroid
    d.rast aspect
    d.vect.chart map=erode_index_ctrds ctype=bar columns=cat \
                 size=10 max_ref=12 scale=1.5 colors=yellow
    d.vect erode_index_ctrds icon=basic/circle fcol=black col=black size=5
