Multidimensional Data and Charts that Require Data Value Specification


Certain types of charts, such as scatter and bubble charts, require you to specify the dimension and data values to be charted.

To specify the data you want charted:

  1. In the Chart Types and Configuration dialog box, click the Data Configuration tab.
    The number of required data values for the chart is displayed at the top of the tab.
  2. In the Dimension to use for data values drop down list, select the dimension to be charted.
  3. Select the required number of data values in the box on the left-hand column.
    Any extra selected values are ignored.
  4. Click Add to set the selected data values you want charted. The selected data values move to the right.
  5. To change the chart axes for the selected data values, use the Up and Down buttons.
  6. Click the OK button to close the dialog box and implement the changes. Click Apply to implement the changes without closing the dialog box.
