Bar, Pie, and Scatter Charts graph data from spreadsheets.  The cells of the spreadsheet can contain statistical tokens based on your plotted data, or free text. You may want to familiarize yourself with spreadsheets prior to beginning this tutorial by visiting the spreadsheet tutorial.

 

Note the charts can be populated by drag-and-drop directly, but the spreadsheet must be accessed to add formatting elements, such as Error Bars and Data Emphasis features (i.e., Highlighting and Exploding).  

In this section of the tutorial, we will learn to:

•Insert a spreadsheet onto the layout and populate it with free text and statistical tokens.

•Create a Bar Chart.

•Create a Pie Chart.

•Create a Scatter Chart (also see the Regression Analysis tutorial for more details on creating live updating regression analysis).
