Creating Charts

The colored squares next to the row labels (Region 1 and Region 2) show which color

represents each data series in the chart.

The illustration below shows how this data looks as a column chart.

In this chart, the data series are represented by rows in the Chart Data Editor. The data

points are represented as a series of dark-colored bars and a series of light-colored

bars.

Transposing Data Series and Data Sets

You can easily switch the data series and data sets in your charts—without having to

retype the data—by using the Plot Row vs. Column button in the Chart Data Editor.

These squares indicate
which color represents
each data series.

The data sets contain one
data point (one bar) from
each of the data series.

These four bars represent
one data series.

The chart legend denotes
the two data series.
