Add/Edit Series Dialog
See below for the description of fields in the Add Series/Edit Series dialogs. Fields that are self-explanatory are not explained.
In the Add Series dialog, only the Series tab is visible. The other tabs become visible after you save the series and reopen it for editing.
The availability of fields on this tab depends on the type of the chart that you choose in the Series Type field.
Field/Checkbox Name |
Description |
|---|---|
Name |
Enter a name that uniquely identifies the series within the chart template. For charts with only one series, this is often the same as the chart name. |
Series Type |
Specifies the type of chart used to display the series data. The availability of other fields on this tab depends on the selected series type. |
Order |
Specifies the painting order when multiple series are included in the same chart. Series with lower numbers are painted first and appear first in the legend. |
Colour |
Allows you to select the colour used to draw the series. |
Opacity |
Sets the transparency of the series on a scale from 0 to 100. A value of 100 makes the series fully opaque, while 0 makes it fully transparent. |
Point Style |
Defines the shape used for data points. This option is available for series types that display individual points. |
Shaded |
If you tick this checkbox, the area between your line series and the horizontal axis will be shaded in a paler version of the series’ colour. This checkbox is available only for the Lines, Horizontal Lines, Bezier Lines and Polygon series types. |
Checkboxes under Statistics and Trend Line screen areas |
If you tick the checkboxes under these screen areas, you will see the corresponding lines displayed on your chart. Standard Deviation shows horizontal lines one deviation above and one deviation below the mean. These screen areas are available only for the Lines, Horizontal Lines, Bezier Lines, Bubble and Points series types. |
On this tab, you can configure one or more axes for a series. For more information, see Configure Axes for a Chart Template Series.
