When you create a chart, AppleWorks minimizes the number of data series (the items shown in the legend) by plotting the series from values in either the rows or columns, whichever there are fewest of. You can change the way data series are represented in a chart by specifying whether the values come from the rows or columns.

To change whether AppleWorks plots the data series from rows or columns:

1	Select the chart, then choose Chart Options from the Edit menu.
	Tip: You can also double-click the chart.
2	Click General.
3	For "Series in," select Rows or Columns.
	The "Series names" box shows the data series.
