Y-axis (left)

Axis text:

Type explanatory text that should appear along the Y-axis of your graph.

Show grid:

Select this check box when you wish to have grid lines in your graph.

The grid lines will automatically be drawn for all ticks along the Y-axis, i.e. as specified for Interval.

Axis type:

When using a value column for the Y-axis:

• Select Linear when you wish to use a normal Y-axis.
• Select Logarithmic when you wish to use a logarithmic Y-axis.
• Select Normal Probability when you wish to show cumulative frequencies (which range from 0 - 1 or from 0% to 100%) on the Y-axis, and (classified) observed values on the X-axis. If the sample data are in fact normally distributed, the resultant cumulative frequencies will appear as a straight line.

For examples of different types of axes, see X-axis, section Examples.
