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 to the right relative to the right

As the width changes, the right border of
the sweep either expands or retracts
while the left border remains stationary.
