The easiest way to format a graph is to
right-click on the portion of the graph you wish to change. You can
- right-click a chart axis to change scale, format, etc.
- right-click a title, axis title, or free-standing text to
change its font size, etc.
- right-click a line to change the color used for that data
series (including line formats, etc.)
- right-click a data point to change how the chart illustrates
it
- right-click the chart background to change background colors
for the plot area.
Excel also has a charting toolbar for accomplishing most of
these tasks. The best way to learn what this toolbar does is to build a simple
sample chart and experiment with it. |
