# Format

### Layout

Choose how the funnel is positioned within the view.

* **Centered funnel**\
  Places the funnel in the middle of the canvas.
* **Left aligned**\
  Aligns the funnel to the left side of the view.
* **Right aligned**\
  Aligns the funnel to the right side of the view.

### Orientation

Define the direction of the funnel.

* **Top to bottom**\
  Displays the funnel vertically from top to bottom.
* **Left to right**\
  Displays the funnel horizontally from left to right.

### Shape style

Adjust how the funnel narrows between stages.

* **No taper**\
  All stages have the same width.
* **Linear taper**\
  Stages decrease in width using straight edges.
* **Curved taper**\
  Stages decrease in width using smooth, rounded transitions.
* **Pinched ribbon**\
  Creates a more stylized funnel with tighter connections between stages.

### Sort stages

Control how stages are ordered in the funnel.

* **Original order**\
  Uses the order from your data.
* **Value high to low**\
  Sorts stages from largest to smallest.
* **Value low to high**\
  Sorts stages from smallest to largest.

### Stage gap

Adjust the spacing between stages.

Increasing the gap creates more separation between stages.\
Decreasing the gap creates a more compact funnel.

### Minimum width (%)

Set the minimum width for the smallest stage.

This prevents very small values from becoming too thin to display clearly.

### Tail width (%)

Control the width of the final stage.

Lower values create a sharper funnel shape.\
Higher values create a flatter bottom.

### Curve strength (%)

Adjust how curved the funnel edges appear.

Lower values create straighter edges.\
Higher values create more rounded transitions.

### Fill opacity (%)

Adjust the transparency of the funnel stages.

Lower opacity makes stages more transparent.\
Higher opacity makes them more solid.

### Flow connectors

Show or hide connectors between stages.

* **On**\
  Displays connectors to emphasize flow between stages.
* **Off**\
  Removes connectors for a cleaner look.

### Connector opacity (%)

Adjust the transparency of the connectors.

Lower values make connectors subtle.\
Higher values make them more prominent.

### Border width

Adjust the thickness of the stage borders.

Set to 0 for no borders, or increase for stronger separation between stages.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.infotopics.com/showmemore/features/funnel-chart/format.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
