2025 Week 8 | Sigma : Can you Create a Bump chart?

Can you make a bump chart?

Introduction

Bump charts are a great way explore changes in rank over time. They’re also a snazzy way to gamify your data and create some friendly competition. A bump chart is more interactive with a continuous time field – the chart changes when a new date part occurs.

We’ll use some of Sigma’s enhanced chart formatting to jazz things up a bit.

Enjoy!
