    Managing chart legends

    Adding or Removing the Legend

    Select **Scorecards & Elements** from the Control Panel\ Choose **Manage Elements**\ Open **Measures**\ Select the **Measure** you are going to be working with, in this example, ‘Revenue’.
    Double-click on the **Chart field** to edit\ You can set the chart legend to display by selecting **Enabled** under **Show Legend**\ Under **Chart Title** enter the legend, for example, ‘Variance’.\ Set the position of the legend under **Select Legend Position**\ Click the **Refresh Preview** to see a preview of your changes\ Once you are done with your changes, click **Save**

    Using the Legend to Dynamically Hide Series

    Select **Scorecards & Elements** from the Control Panel\ Choose **Manage Elements**\ Open **Measures**\ Select the **Measure** you are going to be working with, in this example, ‘Revenue’.\ Click on the **Series Title** in the legend to toggle it on and off

    Formatting Y-axis

    ClearPoint charts have default Y-axis settings based on the series that are plotted on that chart. If this doesn’t look exactly how you want it, no problem. You have the option to format it until it looks just right.
    Select **Scorecards & Elements** from the Control Panel\ Choose **Manage Elements**\ Open **Measures**\ Select the **Measure** you are going to be working with, in this example, ‘Revenue’.
    Double-click on the **Chart field** to edit\ Navigate to the **Chart Axis Format tab**\ You can add a **Y-Axis Title**\ Enter a **Y-Axis Min Value** or **Max Value**. If left blank, ClearPoint will calculate this for you. \ By default, the **Y-Axis Format** will use whatever number format your series is using. Alternatively, you can select a different number format to apply, ignoring the number format(s) of your series.\ Click **Refresh Preview** you see a preview of your changes\ Once you are done with your changes, click **Save**

    Charting on a second Y-axis

    ClearPoint charts have the ability to map series on a second Y-axis, which provides a manageable way to track series with different units of measurement on the same chart.
    Select **Scorecards & Elements** from the Control Panel\ Choose **Manage Elements**\ Open **Measures**\ Select the **Measure** you are going to be working with, in this example, ‘Revenue’.
    Double-click on the **Chart field** to edit\ Navigate to the **Chart Series tab**\ Click on the **edit Pencil icon** next to the Series you wish to edit\ Mark the checkbox next to **Second Axis** and click **Save**\ Click **Refresh Preview** to see a preview of your changes\ Once you are done with your changes, click **Save**
