Changing the Scale

To change the scale of numbers used on an axis:

  1. Double-click the chart with your left mouse button.

  2. Right-click the chart once. A menu will appear.

  3. Click Chart Designer. The Chart Designer window will open.

  4. In the box on the left, click Category (X) Axis to change the X-axis scale (or Value (Y) Axis to change the Y-Axis, or Category (Z) axis to change the Z-axis).

  5. By default, EasySpreadsheet will automatically set the scale for you. To set the scale yourself, in the Scale section, un-check Automatic. Then, you can set the minimum and maximum values, the major and minor divisions, or the divisions per label and tick. (Note: The scale options available depend on your chart type.)

  6. In the Ticks section, you can change the position and length of the label ticks.

  7. Depending on your chart type, a Scale Type tab may appear beside the Category Scale (or Value Scale) tab. By default, EasySpreadsheet will use a linear scale. To use a logarithmic or percent scale instead, click the Scale Type tab.

  8. When you are done, click Apply, and then OK.
