Assigning Members to Specific Axes (Multidimensional Data)
You can use the Chart > Axes Placement... option
in the menu bar to control the axis on which each member is charted. The default
axis placements are based on the grid and data layout panel. Changes made to
the chart axes do not affect the grid or data layout panel.
 |
The drop down lists control
the placement of the members currently on the Row and Column axes. If
one of these is the Measures dimension, additional drop down lists on the right
side of the tab control the y-axis placement of Measures and each of its
children. |
In the example below:
- Measures is assigned to the Y axis.
- The All Locations dimension is assigned as the filter axis, appearing as
a drop down list for selection.
- All Time Periods is assigned to the X axis
- All Products is assigned to the legend axis.
To assign members to axes:
- Under the Axes Placement tab in the Chart Types
and Configuration dialog box, clear the Automatically assign chart
axes check box if it is selected.
- Using the drop down lists, select the axes for each dimension member. With bipolar and dual-axis chart types you can split the Y axis into the 1st and 2nd Y axes.
- Click OK to close the dialog box and implement the changes. Click Apply
to implement the changes without closing the dialog box.
