Options<br />

At the bottom of Dialog box 140 you can convert an existing simple bar chart<br />

into a clustered or stacked bar chart.<br />

The change scale to 100% option converts clustered bar charts into stacked<br />

bar chars <strong>and</strong> presents the percentages of the different categories or variables in<br />

the stacked chart. For example, with this option Figure 59 will be converted into<br />

Figure 86.<br />

There are two Line Options in Dialog box 140. The first one, connect markers<br />

with categories, connects the markers of the same category that appear in<br />

different lines. For example, with this option Figure 66 will look like Figure 87.<br />

As may be seen, the vertical lines connect the scores of each gender group on<br />

enjoyment, ef<strong>for</strong>t, <strong>and</strong> boredom.<br />

The second line option is display projection. With this option you can specify<br />

the projection category of a variable. For example, you may want to specify a<br />

projection category <strong>for</strong> boredom. Click Location in Dialog box 140. Select a value<br />

(e.g., 4) <strong>and</strong> tick the display reference line at location option (Dialog box 141).<br />
