Floating range bar chart: a React and Figma chart in four sizes

What does a floating range bar chart show?

A floating range bar chart draws each item as a bar from its start to its end value, so you compare windows instead of totals. Use it for delivery windows, opening hours, price ranges or any from-to pair per item.

Chartory ships it as a Figma component and a React component with the same name. The code installs from the shadcn registry with one command and lands in your project as a file you own.

What is the Floating range bars component?

It is one <FloatingRangeBars> component. Its props are the Figma properties with the same names and values, and the props table above lists them. The data is a start, an end and a median per item, plus the SLA time.

Sizes XS, S, M and L re-lay the chart out from the data instead of scaling it, so labels stay readable at every size.

When should I use it?

  • Is each item a from-to pair? Yes means the floating range bars fit.
  • Are the items independent? Yes means the floating range bars fit.
  • Is it a range, not a spread of values? Yes means the floating range bars fit.

When does another type fit better?

  • One value per item. Use Horizontal bars instead.
  • Tasks in one schedule. Use Gantt instead.
  • Many values per item. Use Box plot instead.

Floating range questions

Installing, data, Figma and plans.

  • Yes. It installs through the shadcn registry with the shadcn CLI, and the file lands in your project.
