Practice Exercise 10: Creating a Chart
STEP 2D: Use the 3 icons to the right of the chart to customize the chart (FIGURE 3). For example, if you want to add titles to the vertical axis or horizontal axis, select the top icon, “Chart Elements” and check the box, “Axis Titles”. We now have a vertical axis label “Axis Title”.
The other 2 icons are “Chart Styles” (center icon) and “Chart Filters” (bottom icon) which can be used for other types of chart customization. |

STEP 3: When you click on the chart, a contextual tab will appear up on the Ribbon which includes 2 tabs for Chart customization, called Design and Format. Each of these tabs has its own toolbar. Contextual tabs are temporary and only appear when you are doing something specialized. In this case, we are now working with a chart.
