Changing a Chart from One Type to Another
You can change a charts type anytime you like. Some chart types, however, use the
row and column data dierently, as described below.
To change a chart from one type to another:
1 Select the chart.
2 Choose a chart type from the pop-up menu in the format bar. Or click Inspector in the
toolbar, click the Chart button, and then choose a dierent chart type from the pop-up
menu that appears when you click the chart icon in the upper left. For a table of chart
types from which you can select, see About Charts” on page 221.
If you switch to a pie chart, the rst data point in each series is represented as a wedge.
If you switch to a scatter chart, each point in the chart requires two values. If the chart
is based on an odd number of rows or columns, the last row or column isn’t plotted.
