Hiding and Showing Legends in a Widget #

Setting the Maximum and Minimum Boundaries of the Widget’s Y-Axis #

The y-axis in a graph is the vertical axis that runs from the bottom to the top. They represent a numerical value. This is where the Y-axis stands on a widget:

 

The higher we go in the y-axis, the higher the value is. While vice versa, the lower we go in the y-axis, the lower the value is.

You can adjust the maximum (the ceiling) and/or the minimum (the bottom) values of the graph by following these steps:

1. Under “Y-axis bounds”, make sure that “Value” is ticked instead of “Automatic”.
2. Input the desired value(s).
3. Click on “Save”.
4. Click on “Yes”.
