Chapter 9 Creating Charts 159

Formatting Charts

You can resize and reposition charts and chart legends just like any other object. You

can format chart elements—fonts, colors, axis labels, and tick marks—to suit your

preferences. You can also hide the chart legend. Most chart formatting tasks are done

using the Chart Inspector. You can also accomplish many tasks using shortcut menus.

To open a chart’s shortcut menu:

m Hold down the Control key and click a chart.

To hide the chart legend:

1 Choose View > Show Inspector (or click Inspector in the toolbar), and then click the

Chart Inspector button.

2 Select the chart.

3 In the Chart Inspector, deselect the checkbox labeled Show Legend.

You can also select the legend and press Delete; you can always display the legend

again by selecting the Show Legend checkbox.

Setting Chart Colors

You can format the bars, wedges, and area shapes that appear on each type of chart

just as you format any other drawn object. You can give them color fills, gradient fills,

image fills, shadows, opacity, or different line styles. You set these attributes in the

Graphic Inspector.

To change the color or image in a bar, wedge, or area shape:

1 Select the item (bar, wedge, or area shape).

If you select one bar in a bar chart, all the bars in that data series are selected.

2 Change chart properties as you would for any drawn object using the Graphic

Inspector.

For more information about changing object properties, see Chapter 7, “Changing

Object Properties.”
