Create Custom X Axis on Bar Chart

cbrackeen — Fri, 05 Apr 2019 14:56:43 GMT

Hello,

I have made a basic bar chart in Visual Analytics and the default for the x-axis label is the variable name, but I was wondering if there was a way to create a custom label for this axis without having to rename the variable?

Thanks in advance.

It might help to provide your code but generally if your variable has a label associated that would be the axis label. If you do not have a label then try adding something like:

label axisvariablename='Text you want as the axis label';

to the graphic procedure. of course axisvariablename should be the name of your variable.

Thank you for your response!

I should have mentioned that I am using the Visual Analytics (drag and drop) view. Is there a way to add custom code there?

Never had access to VA so I can't help you with that. The interface is completely different from the questions, such as yours, from what I understand.
