When should Make replace studio paste for a regional sheet with 16 rows?

Use Make when the regional sheet already lives in a file with 16 rows and the numbers should keep their locale separators. Use studio paste when you are placing a title, an annotation, or a palette on a form you already trust. Make reads the file. The studio edits the picture. Starting in the wrong one means typing the table twice.

If the regional sheet is a CSV or a spreadsheet of 16 rows, open Make so locale numbers stay intact. Open the studio when the data are already a chart and you are only changing the title, the note, or the palette. Do not retype a large table into the canvas.

What Make reads

Make takes the file of the regional sheet and keeps separators for the locale, so 16 rows do not turn commas into extra columns. That is the point of starting there when the sheet already exists.

What the studio edits

The studio is for the picture of a regional sheet you already accept: title length, a source footnote, a palette. It is a poor place to paste 16 rows by hand.

Locale numbers

A regional sheet of 16 rows can use a comma or a point as the decimal mark. Make follows the locale sample. Pasting the same sheet into the studio without that care splits values and silently changes the chart.

Do not type it twice — make-vs-paste-regions

If you already cleaned the regional sheet in a sheet of 16 rows, Make should be the first page. The studio comes after, for the sentence around the chart, not for a second entry of the numbers.

This page chooses Make or the studio for a regional sheet of 16 rows. It does not upload your file and it does not change how the studio sanitizes a shape.

Questions

Does Make choose the chart for the regional sheet?
It builds from the file. The chooser still decides whether that regional sheet of 16 rows should be a bar, a line, or a table. Make does not replace that rule.
Can I paste 16 rows into the studio instead?
Only for a tiny check. A full regional sheet of 16 rows belongs in Make so separators survive. The studio paste is for a short edit, not a second database.
Where does the source line of the regional sheet go?
After the file is in, add it in the studio as a footnote. Make does not write the sentence. A regional sheet of 16 rows still needs a human source line.
