Adding Sweeps
Sweep elements are bracketed sections of the bar graph that can be used as visual cues. In the example
below, four sweeps are added with varying properties such as no fill, and various offset, Z-Order and width
settings.
To include a sweep on a bar graph:
1.
Select the bar graph.
2.
From the right-click menu, select
Insert > New Sweep
.
☛
The sweep will not display on the bar graph unless a start and end value is entered.

Offset
With positive offset changes, the sweep moves
down relative to the bottom edge of the bar, with
negative changes the sweep moves up relative to
the bottom edge of the bar.
Width
As the width changes, the bottom border of the
sweep either expands or retracts while the top
border remains stationary.
