In this dialog the appearance of the axes and the expressions, represented by the y-axes of the chart, can be
set. One or two y-axes scales may be defined. In case the x-axis represents numeric values it may be set to
continuous (see below).
The contents of the dialog:
Expression Axes
Expressions The available expressions displayed here are defined in the Chart Properties:
Expressions (page 609) dialog.
Set a separate Axis Color and Width for the y-axis as well as a separate Font for the scale numbering,
by clicking the appropriate options.
Log Scale A logarithmic scale can be used, provided that all data points in the chart have
positive values (>0).
Forced 0 The x-axis will cross at y = 0. This option is not available when a logarithmic
axis is used.
Hide Axis Hides the axis for the selected expression.
Show Grid / Show
Minor Grid
The scale ticks of the y-axis that will be used for showing horizontal (y-axes
Position is set to Left and/or Right) and vertical (y-axes Position is set to Top
and/or Bottom) grid lines.
Scale: Static Min The scale of the y-axis will not change with document state. Check this alternative
to set a fixed minimum value for the y-axis in the edit box.
Static
Max
Check this alternative to set a fixed maximum value for the y-axis.
Static Step Check this alternative to set a fixed interval between scale ticks for the yaxis.
Values entered in the Scale group may be specified as a Calculated Formula (page 851). Click the
... button to open the Edit Expression dialog for easier editing of long formulas.
Position When two expressions are available, you may select different positions for
them so that one is displayed to the Left (Bottom) and the other is displayed
to the Right (Top). In this way the y-axes will display different scales for the
expressions.
Split Axis Splitting the y-axis into two parts creates the impression of two charts sharing
a common x-axis. The Primary n % setting defines the percentage of the available
axis length that will be used for the primary part of the axis.
Dimension Axis
Primary Dimension
Labels
Secondary Dimension
Labels
Set the display of labels for main dimension as either horizontal, diagonal or
vertical text.
Display labels for secondary dimension as either horizontal, diagonal or vertical
text.
Continuous Scale axes as continuous numeric (linear).
Forced 0 The y-axis will cross at x = 0.
