| The State timeline visualization shows discrete state changes over time. | |
| The Heatmap visualization allows you to view histograms over time. | |
| The Status history visualization shows periodic states over time. | |
| The Histogram visualization calculates the distribution of values and presents them as a bar chart. | |
