A chart does not have to stay in its original format nor does it have to display the information in one way. Charts can be adjusted using various functions.

## **Chart Type**

Users can select which chart to use by selecting a visualization type. Visualizations can be accessed by clicking the bar graph icon ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/5c9d1111-0c69-4e96-8910-d7f2750fdc9d/Images/Documentation/ad-hoc-chart-elements-image-1vwufst5.png) in the top ribbon.

### Chart Types

Once the visualization icon is selected, a pop-up window will appear that includes a number of different visuals to choose from. Select the type that displays the information best.

### Format Visualization

From this panel , users can edit elements of the visualization such as the title, axes, labels, legend, and various aspects of the appearance. The formatting options will be dependent on the visualization type selected.

## **Data Level Filter**

The Data Level filter is found in the Filters section of the Drill-down & Filters panel. This slider helps provide a range of detail that the chart will display. These are based on the fields and measures listed in the column and row layouts.
