Adding Formats to Measures

To add a visual format to a measure, follow the steps below:

1. If the chart contains multiple measures with individual styles, click on one of the arrows in the 'Visual' panel title bar to select the par­ticular measure that you want to format. (Or click the area between the arrows to select the measure from a menu.)

 

If desired, select 'all' to apply visual formatting (selected in the next step) to all measures.

2. Drag the desired field from the Data Source panel to the desired format field in the 'Visual' region ('Color', 'Shape', 'Size', or 'Text') of the Binding panel.

 

By default, string-type measures are represented categorically. Other measures are represented linearly unless you select the 'Discrete' option. See Displaying a Measure as Discrete Values for more information.
