To create charts, drag data items from the Source tab to the measures,
data series, and categories drop zones.
To help you when creating charts, you can do the following:
- Resize your charts.
- Move the chart drop zones into flyouts so that they appear only when you pause your pointer over the chart.
After you create a basic chart, modify the various chart objects to customize your chart.
