Structural Components of Tables
Thoughtfully designed Data and Structural Components lead to clear and efficient communication.
Tables generally work best when they also contain additional text that is used to complement the categorical subdivisions and quantitative values in various ways. In Chapter 7, General Design for Communication, we noted that additional text can do the following:
- Label
- Introduce
- Explain
- Reinforce
- Highlight
- Sequence
- Recommend
- Inquire
