The following describe how you can modify your charts to add impact and better convey information. Radar charts do not have horizontal (category) axes, and pie and doughnut charts do not have any axes. 3-D column, 3-D cone, or 3-D pyramid charts have a third axis, the depth axis (also known as series axis or z axis), so that data can be plotted along the depth of a chart. For information about how to change to the scale, see:Ĭhange the scale of the horizontal (category) axis in a chartĬhange the scale of the vertical (value) axis in a chartĬhange the scale of the depth (series) axis in a chartĬharts typically have two axes that are used to measure and categorize data: a vertical axis (also known as value axis or y axis), and a horizontal axis (also known as category axis or x axis).
Important: This article does NOT cover changing the scale of chart axes.
