About graph designs
You use graph designs to add illustrations to columns and markers. Graph designs can be a simple drawing, logo, or other symbol representing values in a graph; they can also be complex objects that contain patterns and guide objects. Illustrator comes with a variety of preset graph designs. In addition, you can create new graph designs and store them in the Graph Design dialog box. You can apply graph design to columns in several ways: ![]() Vertically scaled graph design compared to uniformly scaled graph design ![]() Repeating graph with chopped design compared to repeating graph with scaled design ![]() Sliding graph design You can also rotate the design in the Graph Column dialog box. By default, the design is rotated to appear horizontal in the legend box. You can turn this option off so that the design appears vertically in the legend box. |
