Data Series

Series refers to a set of values in your dataset. Each series is represented as a row or column of numbers that can be graphed in a chart. To customize all series at once, click the General tab, and to customize an individual series, click the Series tab and select the series you want to modify.

You can read more about series in the Working with series section.

Vertical and Horizontal Axis

Charts let you customize the vertical and horizontal axes, including titles, axis lines, grid lines, tick marks, and label display.

Learn more about the axes in the Customizing chart section.

Legend

In addition to adjusting the legend’s position, you can enable interactivity for the series. Four modes control how the legend behaves when clicked.

You can read more about the Legend [here].

Annotations

Annotations are useful for highlighting key information by adding a label, point, line, or emphasizing a specific range.

Learn more about the Annotations [here].

Additional Content

Heading and Footnote are typically used for the chart title and data source.

Overlay Screen lets you add extra information, tips, or guidance directly on the chart to help your readers navigate it more easily.

You can read more about the Additional Content [here].

Other Features

Some chart types offer additional features, such as Grouping, Prediction, Navigator, or Animation.

Learn more about them in the Customizing chart section.

Set up a mobile version

Until now, you’ve been working on a single version of your chart that displays the same way on all devices. Charts also lets you create a separate version for mobile devices to ensure optimal readability.

You can read more about different screen resolutions [here].

Themes

The easiest way to make your chart stand out is by applying one of the predefined themes. You can choose from several ready-made styles or create your own custom theme.

Learn more about them in the Themes [here].

Settings

Even after finishing your chart, there’s one more step before publishing and sharing it—reviewing the metadata. Metadata includes all the information about the chart, such as the title and description, rather than the data displayed within it.

While viewing the chart, open the settings panel and enter the description and add tags.
