About This Feature

Overview

Word Cloud is a chart component in AirSheet dashboards in WPS Office for macOS. It helps you create a word cloud from text data by showing words in different sizes based on frequency and importance. Larger words usually represent terms that appear more often, which helps you identify recurring themes quickly.

Core capabilities include:

  • Add a word cloud chart component: Insert a word cloud into a dashboard and enter editing mode.
  • Edit and export the chart: Configure, duplicate, copy as image, export as image, or delete the chart.
  • Set chart type and data: Choose a data source, filter the data range, select the keyword field, and adjust the counting method.
  • Adjust chart style: Change the theme color and word cloud shape with live preview.

This feature is useful for comment analysis, keyword visualization, tag popularity review, and text theme summaries.

Capability SummaryAdd a Word Cloud chart directly in an AirSheet dashboard, then configure the data source, filters, keyword field, counting method, display count, word frequency table, detail fields, theme color, and shape.Microsoft officially documents word cloud creation through Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, where users ask Copilot to generate a word cloud from a file. The official page describes a chat-based workflow rather than a built-in dashboard chart component.Google Docs does not show a native word cloud chart in its official product help. The official Google Workspace Marketplace listing for Word Cloud for Docs provides a downloadable word cloud add-on with extra customization for premium users.Notion officially provides chart views for databases, including bar, line, donut, and number charts, and supports saving charts as PNG or SVG. The official help page does not describe a word cloud chart type.Adobe officially provides a WordCloud app for Adobe Connect that collects participant responses and displays repeated words or phrases in larger sizes. This is positioned around interactive meeting feedback.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: Word Cloud is built directly into the dashboard workflow for ongoing text analysis. Distinct: It combines data setup, style adjustment, preview, and image export in one chart workflow.Compared with WPS: the official Microsoft page focuses on Copilot-generated output from chat prompts and does not describe dashboard-style chart configuration on that page.Compared with WPS: the official Google path shown here depends on a Marketplace add-on rather than a native Docs chart feature.Compared with WPS: Notion officially emphasizes general database charts, and the official chart list does not include a word cloud option.Compared with WPS: Adobe’s official WordCloud page is centered on live audience feedback in meetings rather than dashboard field configuration for data analysis.
