X-axis labeling

R

rrbbmmrr

Hi, I have a bar chart that has negative y-axis values and my x-axis
labeling is occurring in the middle of my chart. How can I get the
x-axis labels to show at the bottom of the y-axis without altering the
bars of the bar chart? If I simply change the x-axis to meet the
y-axis at the lowest y-axis value the bar chart changes to show bars
starting from the bottom of the y-axis. I would simply like the x-axis
labels to show at the y-axis minimum without changing the bars.

Click to expand...
Double-click the x axis. From the 'Format Axis' dialog box, in the
Patterns tab set 'Tick mark labels' to 'Low'.
