Reveal Recurring Trends in Radial Line Charts

Use a Tableau Next radial line chart to visualize a measure over a repeating sequence and identify cyclical or seasonal patterns. Compare multiple groups across the same cycle to see where trends align or differ. Because the beginning and end of the sequence appear next to each other, you can see whether trends continue or change across the cycle boundary.
