By default, Visual Analytics determines the axis range when you build a chart using a continuous dimension or a measure. You can specify your range and customize the axis appearance. Axis options are available in the Edit Axis dialog box.

By default, Visual Analytics applies the same range to each row or column based on the maximum data range for all panes in the view.

Independent Axis Range

Visual Analytics sets an independent range for each row or column based on the minimum and the maximum values in the data.

Fixed Axis Range

...

  • Fix both ends of the axis: Specify the start and end range. Visual Analytics determines the range by specified values. 
  • Fix one end of the axis: When fixing only one end, choose the other end as uniform or independent.
    For example, the following view shows freight by order month. The actual data contains freight from March to September. However, using this option, you can set the axis range that starts from January and ends in December so you can see where the data points are plotted in the complete range. The icon is displayed for OrderDate because that is the range you have fixed.
