<b>Spreadsheet data format</b>
<ul>
<li>Column graphs require one or more series of columns or rows of data.
<li>The number of data cells used is only limited by available memory.
</ul>
<b>Column graph properties</b><br>
The following outlines the properties that are available for Column graphs.
<ul>
<li><b>Series</b><br>
Groups the values displayed by rows or columns.
For example, a 7-row by 2-column data set graphed with series as columns would display 7 sets of groups of 2 columns. In this case, the number of series is 2.
<li><b>Title</b><br>
Specifies the column graph main title.
<li><b>Category (X) axis label</b><br>
Specifies the text label applied to the x-axis.
<li><b>Value (Y) axis label</b><br>
Specifies the text label applied to the y-axis.
<li><b>Show border</b><br>
Controls display of a border enclosing the graph image.
<li><b>Show legend</b><br>
Controls display of the legend in the upper right corner of the graph.
<li><b>Stack values</b><br>
This option, if selected will stack the values from each series in the data set, creating columns with a height representing these combined values.
<li><b>Auto-ranging</b><br>
Auto-ranging causes AutoGraph to determine the best fit data range to display.<br>
For example, if your data ranges from 12500 to 12600, AutoGraph will attempt to display only that range of values.
<li><b>Use specified range</b><br>
This option will allow you to zoom in or out by specifying the range of values to be displayed in the <b>Y min</b> and <b>Y max</b> data fields.
<li><b>Data labels</b><br>
You have the option of displaying data labels on each of the columns. You may choose to display the value, or the numeric label which identifies the series.
<li><b>Gridlines</b><br>
Controls display of the x and y-axis gridlines.
