# Choosing Trend Or Slope View

> Clarify how to visualize change over a time range before building a trend. Use whenever the user asks how much something changed, grew, dropped, improved, or regressed between two points or periods — "how much did X change from A to B", "before vs after", "start vs end", "week over week", "compare this month to last", "change over time" — or mentions a "slope chart" / "slopegraph". Two readings of "change" need different charts: the whole trend (a line, every interval) versus just the two endpoints (a slope, start vs end). Ask which they want, then render it. Not for choosing a saved insight ChartDisplayType in the insight editor.
