There are different options to customize Venn visualizations:

  • Proportional. This check box allows you to change how the size of the circles is calculated, by setting this option to true will paint the size of the circles proportionally to the number of elements the list contains. When false all the circles will use the same size.
  • Grayscale. If true, all circles will be painted in different shades of grey. Set to false to use a normal color.
  • Font size. Use the plus or minus icon to increase or decrease the font size.

  • List control. There will be one for each list you load with the wizard. Each control customizes each list individually.

  • The Check box hides or shows the circle represented for this list.

  • The Color box allows changing the color of the circle.
  • The Text field updates the list name.
  • Table button.This will open a table where rows are the union of all lists. The column tag indicates in which lists this element appears. You can use this table to sort and filter the elements and extract the selected rows to a new filtered Venn Diagram.
