Settings

The UI includes a settings panel where you can adjust chart behavior at runtime. CLI flags set the initial defaults. UI settings override them for the session without regenerating the file.

CLI to UI Mapping

Prefer per-chart flags when generating multi-chart HTML. Root-level --sort and --show-labels are deprecated in favor of --chart <type>:…. Chart subcommands (vizb bar, …) still take type-specific flags such as --scale directly.

CLI	UI setting	Options
`--chart <type>:scale=log` or `vizb bar --scale log`	Scale toggle	Linear / Logarithmic
`--chart <type>:sort=asc` or `vizb bar --sort asc`	Sort dropdown	`asc` / `desc` / none
`--charts` / `-c`	Which chart tabs exist	`bar` / `line` / `pie` / `scatter` / `heatmap` / `radar` / `sankey` / `chord`
`--chart <type>:labels` or `vizb pie --show-labels`	Labels toggle	on / off
`--chart line:smooth` or `vizb line --smooth`	Smooth lines	on / off — 2D line only
`--donut` / `--chart pie:donut`	Donut switch	on / off — pie only; off is filled
`--chart bar:3d-rotate` (or line/scatter)	Auto rotate	on / off — 3D bar / line / scatter
`--chart bar:bg` or `vizb bar --bg`	—	on / off — 2D bar only; CLI/config, no UI toggle; writes `background.active: true`
`--stat`	Statistics button	off unless set; see Statistics

Setting Defaults from CLI

# Log scale and labels on bar only (root multi-chart path)
vizb data.csv --chart bar:scale=log,labels -o output.html

# Single chart subcommand
vizb bar data.csv --scale log --show-labels -o output.html

# Sort descending, bar only
vizb bar data.csv --sort desc -o output.html

# Category background on 2D bars (no UI toggle; writes background.active: true)
vizb data.csv --chart bar:bg -o output.html
vizb bar data.csv --bg -o output.html

# Object props: {field=value;field=value} (semicolons inside braces; commas stay literal)
# Unwrapped bar:bg=color=… is invalid
vizb data.csv --chart 'bar:bg={color=rgba(180, 180, 180, 0.2);borderColor=#000}' -o output.html
