Above, the same graph that was shown earlier is displayed here using a different preset angle. The walls
of the cube have also been removed, as well as the values for the Value Axis, in the Display Status
tab of the General Options
dialog box.

All of the 3D Viewing Angle options have been used in this graph. The graph has been rotated about
90 degrees from the earlier example. The Pan and Move options have also been used to position the
graph. And the Walls option has been used to increase the thickness of the floor of the cube.

Choosing a 3D Graph Viewing Angle

To choose a different Viewing Angle for a 3D graph:

1. Select Graph > 3D Viewing Angle to display the Choose a Viewing Angle dialog box:

This dialog box shows a picture of all defined viewing angles. It may contain more or fewer viewing
angle pictures depending on previous selections in the Advanced Options dialog box. To select
one of the defined viewing angles:

2. Select a viewing angle picture.

3. Select the Apply button to apply the Viewing Angle to your 3D graph.

4. Select the OK button to exit the Choose a Viewing Angle dialog box.

5. Select the Advanced Options button to display additional viewing angle selections.

Selections in Graphs and Their Tables

Selections you make in your graphed table will also be highlighted in your Graph window. Conversely,
using the new Graph Select tool, selections in the Graph window change the current selection in the
graphed table.

Table Selections

In a graphed table, any selections you make in the table with the Select tool will be reflected in the
corresponding Graph window as long as the selected table row or map object corresponds to an object
in the graph. For example, in a bar graph, one or more of the bars will be highlighted. In a pie graph,
one or more of the pie wedges will be highlighted.
