The Expand Only feature was developed for auto-scaling such that when the
range expanded during auto-scaling, this option prevented the range from
contracting when the command stopped. Expand Only
Click the check box to allow a range to automatically expand if the data exceeds
the maximum and minimum ranges. The chart does not rescale to a smaller
range.
Specifying the Maximum and Minimum for an axis avoids auto-scaling, however,
also checking Expand Only implies that you want to auto-scale if the data is
outside the specified range.
Toggle between linear scale and log scale for the axis. Select the check box for
logarithmic scale. Leave the box blank for linear scale. Log Scale
