Spreadsheet Import

Wayaframe includes a dedicated spreadsheet import modal for turning CSV and Excel data into charts.

the spreadsheet import workflow

Supported File Types

The current editor accepts spreadsheet files such as:

  • CSV
  • TSV
  • XLSX
  • XLS

Spreadsheet files can be imported through the chart workflow, and the editor also recognizes supported spreadsheet drops.

Import Modal

The import workflow lives in a dedicated Import CSV/XLSX modal.

The current modal includes:

  • A Data tab
  • A Chart tab
  • Spreadsheet preview
  • Sheet selection for multi-sheet files
  • Chart type selection before insert

This is useful because you can validate the source data and choose the visual direction in one place.

Data Preview

The Data tab is for checking what Wayaframe found in the spreadsheet.

The current modal supports:

  • File name, row count, and column count
  • A preview table of the parsed sheet
  • Default column labels when headers are missing
  • Empty-state and error handling for bad or blank sheets

Chart Preview

The Chart tab is where you choose the chart type and preview the result before inserting it.

The current modal includes grouped chart-type buttons for:

  • Bar charts
  • Line charts
  • Area charts
  • Pie charts
  • Scatter charts

It also exposes the matching chart inspector on the right side so you can adjust the starting style before the chart is inserted.

After Import

After the spreadsheet is imported, you can continue refining the chart through the main chart inspector and data editor.

That means import is only the starting point, not the end of the chart workflow.
