Editing the axis for graphs

You may want to change the axis in graphs generated. A common example is including the origin (0,0) in an ICE Scatter Plot.

When you have generated your graph, select the Edit Chart link on the Right Hand Side of the graph use the following instructions to guide you in how you want the axis to change:

1. The Edit Chart link will open the Edit Chart dialogue with 3 tabs: Select Chart Type, Select Data and Format Chart.

2. Select the Format Chart tab.

3. On the Left Hand Side of the Format Chart tab, there is a white area with a number of headings and subheadings. Select: Chart Area > Axis and then choose the axis to edit.

4. The main area of the tab (Chart Preview) will then be relevant to the axis you have selected. Scroll down to the bottom and select the button "Scale".

5. A dialogue opens called "Axis Scale". In here you have the opens of setting Min and Max values for the axis, and the intervals too. Once you have changed the values required, close the dialogue (selecting the "X" in the corner).

6. In the main Edit Chart dialogue, select Apply and Finish, and the graph should be redrawn with the new range for the axis.
