Small multiples

A chart word, with the charts that use it.

Definition

Small multiples are the same chart repeated per group on one shared scale. Instead of tangling many series on one chart, each gets its own panel.

Updated Nov 2, 2026

Response length by modelDistribution of response length in tokens for 5 models: ATLAS 3 peaks near 540, KITE 2 peaks near 380, ORION peaks near 900, VEGA peaks near 260, NOVA peaks near 620; ATLAS 3, ORION and VEGA have a second, smaller peak.ATLAS 3KITE 2ORIONVEGANOVA05001K1.5K2K TOKENS

Common mistakes

Different scales per panel

Panels can only be compared on one scale.

Panels in random order

Order them by value or meaning, so patterns line up.

Questions

When are small multiples better than one chart?

When there are more series than one chart can hold, or when each needs its own space.

How many panels fit?

Six to twelve on a card, more on a page.

In the kit

Ridgeline, ring grid and the other types.

In Figma and React, in four sizes, light and dark. Pay once, every update.
