Manual table

The Manual Table Editor lets you paste or type values directly into the plugin when you’re working with compact datasets. It keeps a 100 × 50 grid in sync with the chart preview.

When to use it

  • You have fewer than ~100 rows and want to tweak numbers on the fly.

  • You’re exploring scenarios without access to the original spreadsheet.

  • You need to adjust imported data after the fact without switching sources.

Key UI areas

  1. Header row — first row contains column names. The first column is treated as categories; subsequent columns become series.

  2. Grid body — double-click to edit a cell, press Enter or Tab to move around quickly.

Workflow

  1. Select Table → Manual from the Data tab.

  2. Paste data from your spreadsheet (cmd/ctrl + V) or type values manually.

  3. Optionally rename the first row to control legend labels.

Troubleshooting

Problem
What to check

Numbers disappear after paste

Ensure the source uses plain text or numbers; merged cells can break the grid.

Chart skips some rows

Verify the first column has values—empty labels are excluded.

Performance slows down

Reduce rows/columns or switch to CSV/Google Sheets for larger datasets.
