To use Grid Line formatting options, first plot a Column Chart using the dimensions and measures from the dataset. For example, we plot a Column Chart of the Count of Cards against Gender. The Ethnicity of the sample is the Legend dimension.
The figure given below shows an original image of the Column Chart. By default, the gridline is absent on the chart.
Now,
- Change the gridline width and its color.
- Change the gridline style. In the chart below, we select the Dash Style.
The resultant widget is shown below.
| In any of the above formatting options, click Reset to default to change the widget back to its original settings, and undo all changes. |
