Setting options for column, stacked column, bar, and stacked bar graphs
For column, stacked column, bar, and stacked bar graphs, you can adjust the amount of space between each column or bar in the graph. You can also adjust the amount of space between the categories, or clusters, of data in the graph. Space between columns (A) compared to space between clusters (B)
To adjust the spacing of columns, bars, and clusters: - Select a column, stacked column, bar, or stacked bar graph with the Selection tool.
- Choose Object > Graph > Type, or double-click the graph tool in the toolbox.
- In the Graph Type dialog box, enter a value between 1% and 1000% in the Column Width, Bar Width, or Cluster Width text box:
- A value above 100% causes the columns, bars, or clusters to overlap one another.
- A value less than 100% leaves space between the columns, bars, or clusters.
- A value of 100% moves the columns, bars, or clusters flush against each other.
- Click OK.
