Format Chart Axis Position

You can add a second y-axis, or change the position of the y-axis on a chart. For horizontal charts, you can add a second x-axis or change the position of the x-axis instead.

Formatting the chart axis is available for the following visualisation types:

• Bar Chart

• Box and Whisker Chart

• Combo Chart

• Line Chart

• Scatter Plot

• Waterfall Chart

Change the position of the chart axis

After adding at least one column to the y-axis (for vertical charts) or the x-axis (for horizontal charts), you can change the position of the axis.

1. In the editor panel, hover over the y-axis column name, then click the caret () to open the column menu.

2. For Axis, select the image that shows the axis in the position that you want.

   

   The chart updates with the axis in the new position.
