Using a reference line or band

With a reference line or band, you can focus on a certain value or range of values in your Chart. A reference line focuses on a specific value, and a reference band focuses on a certain range of values. You can add a reference line or band to the following Chart types:

  • Area

  • Bar

  • Bubble

  • Column

  • Line

  • Scatter

To work with a reference line or band
  1. In the Chart options sections, go to Data (vertical axis) and hover over the field name. A set of icons appears.

  2. Click WC_Icon_Reference_Line.png on the field for which you want to define a line value or band values. The Reference line dialog box opens. The units used for the line or band depend on the data type of the field.

  3. You can add or edit a reference line or a reference band, or remove an existing reference line or band:

    • To add or edit a reference line, enter your reference value in the From field. Make sure that the To field is empty.
