Venn diagram in 1880: Shared baseline

One annotation sentence. Date the source. Keep Venn diagram with “Shared baseline” and 1880 from 1880. Variant 1 of Venn diagram (Set circles). Same encoding, different layout.

John Venn, 1880; Euler drew related region diagrams earlier intersection area of overlapping closed curves Yes if one claim is visible at a glance in Meta, Google and retail print; otherwise link to a full figure. Yes for lab reports and poster boards if axes, units and a source line are present.

Excel or Google Sheets or PowerPoint; export SVG/PDF. Do not rely on hue alone. Label directly and check greyscale. Venn diagram: honour intersection area of overlapping closed curves, and switch when four-plus sets, or when sizes must be to scale. The core mark of Venn diagram is intersection area of overlapping closed curves.

two or three sets with a real overlap story The eye compares length and position more accurately than area. PowerPoint, Excel or Google Sheets and Meta, Google and retail print share the same geometry. Decoration rarely persuades; it slows reading. Perspective distortion wrecks comparison. Keep it flat.

Keep axis, unit, and year. If “Shared baseline” is the axis, the figure is 1880 and the year is 1880. Keep Venn diagram with “Shared baseline” and 1880 from 1880. 18801880

Interactive Scenario & Decision Matrix

Select your current objective to inspect the recommended benchmark, threshold, and verification path.

Leave the current chart type. If a guard warning is showing, fix that field before export.

Briefing 11 for Accessible viz aligns condition “Encoding” with reference value 1917 on the ground.

5-Step Execution & Verification Playbook

  1. Paste stays on this device — JSON you paste or restore never uploads. The studio keeps work in browser memory and local storage only.
  2. sanitizeDoc and guards before render — sanitizeDoc bounds the doc, then guardShape, guardChart and plainText run on every load path. Unknown fields drop; bad docs reject instead of drawing raw.
  3. Recent boards are local — The recent list is saved on this browser. Opening or comparing a snapshot still runs sanitizeDoc first; guards are not skipped on restore.
  4. Coworker export never POSTs — A file or string from a teammate is read locally. Nothing is posted to Tool-Lifes or a third-party ingest endpoint.
  5. Compare is a second sanitize pass — Side-by-side compare loads two already-sanitized boards in memory. It is not an upload or server diff; just a second guard pass on both sides.

Myth vs. Evidence Fact-Check

Does the studio upload my board, CSV, or pasted JSON?

No. Work stays on this device. Nothing is posted to a server. Every load, paste, restore, undo and redo runs sanitizeDoc, then guardShape, guardChart and plainText.

What does sanitize do to JSON I paste or restore?

sanitizeDoc keeps a bounded name, shape list and chart. Unknown fields are dropped. Each shape passes guardShape; charts pass guardChart; labels pass plainText. Invalid docs are rejected, not rendered raw.

If I compare or load a recent board, does it leave this browser?

No. Recent boards are local. Compare and load still run sanitizeDoc first. guardShape, guardChart and plainText are not skipped on restore.

Can I open a coworker’s export without sending it off-device?

The file never uploads. sanitizeDoc and the guards run before render. That is not a virus scanner — only open files you trust. Studio stays sanitize-safe; the guards are not optional.
