The various options to visualize data in KNIME allow you to get an overview or even publication-quality figures from the data you have preprocessed and analyzed.
The interactive versions of a node allow you to change the column selections and probably the other extra options.
The JFreeChart nodes generate images from the input data, which is also available as a view with further customization options. These nodes usually do not support the HiLite feature and the different visual properties (color, size, and shape).
First, to help decide what you use to open the data, we will compare the capabilities of the different visualization nodes:
