This fine is called \u2018IAworkbookPopulationPyramid.xls\u2019 and\u00a0 is saved by default in the folder:<\/p>\n<p>C:\\Program Files\\EsriUK\\InstantAtlas\\workbooks<\/p>\n<p>For the Pyramid Chart to work, you will need to organise your data in two themes. The first theme will populate the right side of the chart and the second theme will populate the left side of the chart. When the Pyramid Chart is used to display population data, the first theme would contain the values for the male part of the population whereas the second theme would contain the values for the female part.<\/p>\n<p>Both themes need to have the same number of indicators. The indicators also need to have exactly the same names in both themes. When the chart is used to display population data, the indicators would represent different age groups.<\/p>\n<p>You can include data for different time periods for the indicators; however, you should have the same time periods for all indicators in both themes. The image below\u00a0shows how the \u2018iadatasheet\u2019 worksheet of your Excel Data Manager would look for an example with population data.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.6471;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3.png\" alt=\"Population Pyramid Workbook\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25081 size-full\" width=\"1919\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3.png 1919w, https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3-300x132.png 300w, https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3-768x338.png 768w, https:\/\/help.instantatlas.com\/instantatlas-desktop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2016\/04\/Pop_image3-1024x450.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1919px) 100vw, 1919px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Configuration Properties<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Legend Data\u00a0Labels<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By default the data labels as shown in the chart legend are \u2018Males\u2019 for\u00a0the right side of the chart x-axis and \u2018Females\u2019 for the left side of the chart x-axis.
