Default Graph Settings

Postby kbmc » Mon Mar 09, 2009 5:22 am

Does anyone know how to edit the Automatic settings for how graphs are displayed?

For example, looking to change default date axis display from "08M07" to "July 2008" without having to edit each time.

Is this possible??

Thanks !

Graph defaults can be changed under Options->Graphics Defaults, although I'm not sure if that particular change can be made.

You may be able to get close to what you want by saving a graph with the desired properties and using it as a template.

Make one graph that looks the way you want and give it a name so it is saved in the workfile. When you make a new graph, click the template button and choose the saved graph.
