Figure 11.5 The Chart Launch Window<br />

In the Chart launch window, you can assign the following:<br />

• Up to two X variables, which appear on the x-axis in the same order that you assign them in the launch<br />

window.<br />

• As many Y variables (statistics) as you want. If the data is already summarized, select Data as the<br />

statistics option.<br />

Table 11.1 Description of the Chart Launch Window<br />

Cast Selected Columns Into Roles:<br />

Statistics<br />

Categories, X, Levels<br />

Use this menu to select the statistic to chart for each Y variable.<br />

See “Plot Statistics for Y Variables” on page 317.<br />

Select up to two X variables whose levels are categories on the x-axis. The<br />

Chart platform produces a bar for each level or combination of levels of<br />

the X variables. If you do not specify an X variable, the chart has a bar for<br />

each row in the data table.<br />

See “Use Categorical Variables” on page 318.
