The Powerview Chart Menu

When a report with a chart opens in Powerview designer, a default chart opens above the data grid. Logger uses the first character field as the X axis, and the first numeric field as the Y axis, and plots the chart. The Powerview designer gives you access to the most commonly used report options. For many more options, open the report in the Classic Ad hoc Report Designer. See Classic: The Ad hoc Report Designer.

Tip: You won't see the chart menu until you move your mouse near the top of the chart.

To change an option from the chart context menu

Point just above the chart to open the chart context menu.

Click the icons to configure your chart options.

The data context menu contains the following options:

Menu Icon	Description
	Change the chart type. Select between 2D and 3D images. Chart types include: Bar, column, pie, doughnut, line, area, curve, curve area, scatter, bubble radar, line radar, gauge, counter, tree map, packed circle, sunburst, funnel, and pyramid.
	Change the data source. Click to select a report or query to use as the source of the chart.
	Link or unlink the chart to either report fields or a matrix. The default is linked. Look for this icon just above the report data. If it shows the check mark, your chart is linked to the report data. If the report data changes, the chart does, also. If there is no checkmark, the chart will not reflect any changes to the original report data.
	Check or uncheck chart display settings. Setting options include: Show Legends, Show Point Labels, and Show Description.

Note: Your changes update immediately, without needing to commit them on the Action board.

From the report data area, right-click to open the context menu and select Save as to save your report.
