<li>Select the data you wish to include into your labels by checking the corresponding boxes: <b>Series Name</b>, <b>Category Name</b>, <b>Value</b>,</li>
<li>Enter a character (comma, semicolon, etc.) you wish to use to separate several labels into the <b>Data Labels Separator</b> entry field.</li>
<li><b>Lines</b> - is used to choose a line style for <b>Line/XY (Scatter) charts</b>. You can choose one of the following options: <b>Straight</b> to use straight lines among data points, <b>Smooth</b> to use smooth curves among data points, or <b>None</b> not to display lines.</li>
<b>Markers</b> - is used to specify whether the markers should be displayed (if the box is checked) or not (if the box is unchecked) for <b>Line/XY (Scatter) charts</b>.
<pclass="note"><b>Note</b>: the <b>Lines</b> and <b>Markers</b> options are available for <b>Line charts</b> and <b>XY (Scatter) charts</b> only.</p>
<p>The <b>Vertical Axis</b> tab allows you to change the parameters of the vertical axis also referred to as the values axis or y-axis which displays numeric values. Note that the vertical axis will be the category axis which displays text labels for the <b>Bar charts</b>, therefore in this case the <b>Vertical Axis</b> tab options will correspond to the ones described in the next section. For the <b>XY (Scatter) charts</b>, both axes are value axes.</p>
<pclass="note"><b>Note</b>: the <b>Axis Settings</b> and <b>Gridlines</b> sections will be disabled for <b>Pie charts</b> since charts of this type have no axes and gridlines.</p>
<li><b>Minimum Value</b> - is used to specify the lowest value displayed at the vertical axis start. The <b>Auto</b> option is selected by default, in this case the minimum value is calculated automatically depending on the selected data range. You can select the <b>Fixed</b> option from the drop-down list and specify a different value in the entry field on the right.</li>
<li><b>Maximum Value</b> - is used to specify the highest value displayed at the vertical axis end. The <b>Auto</b> option is selected by default, in this case the maximum value is calculated automatically depending on the selected data range. You can select the <b>Fixed</b> option from the drop-down list and specify a different value in the entry field on the right.</li>
<li><b>Axis Crosses</b> - is used to specify a point on the vertical axis where the horizontal axis should cross it. The <b>Auto</b> option is selected by default, in this case the axes intersection point value is calculated automatically depending on the selected data range. You can select the <b>Value</b> option from the drop-down list and specify a different value in the entry field on the right, or set the axes intersection point at the <b>Minimum/Maximum Value</b> on the vertical axis.</li>
<li><b>Display Units</b> - is used to determine the representation of the numeric values along the vertical axis. This option can be useful if you're working with great numbers and wish the values on the axis to be displayed in a more compact and readable way (e.g. you can represent 50 000 as 50 by using the <b>Thousands</b> display units). Select desired units from the drop-down list: <b>Hundreds</b>, <b>Thousands</b>, <b>10 000</b>, <b>100 000</b>, <b>Millions</b>, <b>10 000 000</b>, <b>100 000 000</b>, <b>Billions</b>, <b>Trillions</b>, or choose the <b>None</b> option to return to the default units.</li>
<li><b>Values in reverse order</b> - is used to display values in the opposite direction. When the box is unchecked, the lowest value is at the bottom and the highest value is at the top of the axis. When the box is checked, the values are ordered from top to bottom.</li>
The <b>Tick Options</b> section allows adjusting the appearance of tick marks on the vertical scale. Major tick marks are the larger scale divisions which can have labels displaying numeric values. Minor tick marks are the scale subdivisions which are placed between the major tick marks and have no labels. Tick marks also define where gridlines can be displayed if the corresponding option is set on the <b>Layout</b> tab. The <b>Major/Minor Type</b> drop-down lists contain the following placement options:
The <b>Label Options</b> section allows adjusting the appearance of major tick mark labels which display values. To specify a <b>Label Position</b> in regard to the vertical axis, select the necessary option from the drop-down list:

<pclass="note"><b>Note</b>: Secondary axes are supported in <b>Combo</b> chartsonly.</p>
<p><b>Secondary axes</b> are useful in Combo charts when data series vary considerably or mixed types of data are used to plot a chart. Secondary Axes make it easier to read and understand a combo chart.</p>
<p>The <b>Secondary Vertical /Horizontal Axis</b> tab appears when you choose an appropriate data series for a combo chart. All the settings and options on the <b>Secondary Vertical/Horizontal Axis</b> tab are the same as the settings on the Vertical/Horizontal Axis. For a detailed description of the <b>Vertical/Horizontal Axis</b> options, see description above/below.</p>
<p>The <b>Horizontal Axis</b> tab allows you to change the parameters of the horizontal axis also referred to as the categories axis or x-axis which displays text labels. Note that the horizontal axis will be the value axis which displays numeric values for the <b>Bar charts</b>, therefore in this case the <b>Horizontal Axis</b> tab options will correspond to the ones described in the previous section. For the <b>XY (Scatter) charts</b>, both axes are value axes.</p>
<li><b>Gridlines</b> is used to specify the <b>Horizontal Gridlines</b>to display by selecting the necessary option from the drop-down list: <b>None</b>, <b>Major</b>,<b>Minor</b>, or<b>Major and Minor</b>.</li>

The <b>Tick Options</b> section allows adjusting the appearance of tick marks on the horizontal scale. Major tick marks are the larger divisions which can have labels displaying category values. Minor tick marks are the smaller divisions which are placed between the major tick marks and have no labels. Tick marks also define where gridlines can be displayed if the corresponding option is set on the <b>Layout</b> tab. You can adjust the following tick mark parameters:
<li><b>Major/Minor Type</b> - is used to specify the following placement options: <b>None</b> to not display major/minor tick marks, <b>Cross</b> to display major/minor tick marks on both sides of the axis, <b>In</b> to display major/minor tick marks inside the axis, <b>Out</b> to display major/minor tick marks outside the axis.</li>
<li><b>Label Position</b> - is used to specify where the labels should be placed in regard to the horizontal axis. Select the necessary option from the drop-down list: <b>None</b> to not display category labels, <b>Low</b> to display category labels at the bottom of the plot area, <b>High</b> to display category labels at the top of the plot area, <b>Next to axis</b> to display category labels next to the axis.</li>
<li><b>Axis Label Distance</b> - is used to specify how closely the labels should be placed to the axis. You can specify the necessary value in the entry field. The more the value you set, the more the distance between the axis and labels is.</li>
<li><b>Interval between Labels</b> - is used to specify how often the labels should be displayed. The <b>Auto</b> option is selected by default, in this case labels are displayed for every category. You can select the <b>Manual</b> option from the drop-down list and specify the necessary value in the entry field on the right. For example, enter 2 to display labels for every other category etc.</li>
