Histogram

This window allows you to set the options for a Histogram plot.

Histogram Window

Solid / Shaded

The bars can be either solidly filled or shaded with lines. Choose Solid for solid shading and Shaded for spaced lines.

Shading Angle

This option is only valid when the Shaded option is selected. This is an angle between 0 and 90 degrees which is the angle at which you would like the shaded lines in the bars drawn.

Shading Density

This option is only valid when the Shaded option is selected. This is the number of lines per inch that you would like to fill the shaded bars.

Bar Color

This is the color of the bar shading.

Border Color

This is the color for the border around the bars.

Border Line Style

This is the style for the lines that are drawn around the border. There are six styles to choose from.

Bar Labeling

Show Values Above Bars?

Check this box if you would like the values for each histogram bar plotted above each bar.

Values Indicate Frequency

This option is only available when the Show Values Above Bars box is checked. If you would like the values to show the number of items in each bin, check this box.

Values Indicate Probability

This option is only available when the Show Values Above Bars box is checked. If you would like the values to show the percentage of items in each bin, check this box.

X Value Range

This allows you to specify a range on the X axis where the histogram will be plotted.

Breaks

This table allows you to set up custom break points for each bin in the histogram. You must enter bins such that all of your data is covered. For example, if you have data than ranges between 0 and 3.0, you must enter bins that include this range. If you only enter bins from 1.0 to 2.0, the Histogram will not plot.
