Word clouds are a popular way to visualize text data, where the most frequent words are displayed in larger fonts. However, sometimes we want to highlight specific words or exclude certain words from our word cloud. This is where the Lasso and Reverse Lasso options come in.
The Lasso option allows you to select specific words from your text data and display them in a separate word cloud.
To select this option, go to the upper left corner of the visual and click on the lasso icon.
Then go to the visual and select the area you want to highlight.
To deselect the highlighted area, go again to the lasso icon and click.
The Reverse Lasso option allows you to exclude specific words from your word cloud. This can be useful if you want to remove common words like "the" or "and" that may not provide any meaningful insights
To select this option, go to the upper left corner of the visual and click on the reverse lasso icon.
Then go to the visual and select the area you want to exclude.
To disable this option, go again to the reverse lasso icon and click.
