# Report Component - Radar Chart

> A Radar Chart allows you to quickly see values in comparison to related items or groups.

A Radar Chart allows you to quickly see values in comparison to related items or groups. Each value is plotted on a separate axis with a line drawn between the different values. This creates a shape that changes as the values change. An important property for the Radar Chart is **Extract Order**, which dictates whether to use an specified **Variable** or **Series** Key.
