Customizing Chart Axis Attributes
Aabel provides different types of axis customizing dialogs to cover all graph categories available in the application.
- It provides specific controls for customizing axis attributes of plot types that do not share the common axis properties of 2-D and 3-D charts (e.g., spider, rose, stereographic, polar, ternary, sequence alignment, parallel dot plots, etc.). Below, is a screenshot from the UI for axis customizing of parallel dot plot of repeated measures.

- Many graphs share common axis properties (a few examples are shown in the 2-D plots below); accordingly, they share the same customizing UI controls: the image at the bottom of this page shows the axis customizing UI that is shared by numerous 2-D charts.


Axis customizing features include but are not limited to:
- Choice of linear or logarithmic scale, forward or reverse (when applicable)
- Different axis positions (e.g., following from the actual data min. and max. values, through zero, fixed position, floating axis)
- Control of the thickness, color, length and type of major and minor grids
- Control of the axis range and steps, and of where to start and end the first and last major ticks
- Numeric label settings (format, decimal places, use of leading zero, use of a prefix or suffix, etc.)
- Control of axis text properties and the position of labels (e.g., font properties, color, angle of labels, alternate positioning of labels, labeling intervals)
- Control of axis line thickness, color, anti-aliasing, etc.
