Hiding an Axis

Hiding an axis removes all elements of the axis: the axis line, ticks, grid lines, axis labels, and the axis title. You may want to hide an axis if it gets in the way or if you don't want the labels, tick marks, and other axis elements to interfere with the chart's display.

To hide an axis:

1. Select the axis.
2. Choose Format Axis from the context menu and click the Options tab.
3. In the Show frame, un-check the Axis checkbox.
4. Click OK or Apply.

Note To redisplay a hidden axis, select Plot from the context menu and click the Axes tab. Choose the axis you want to redisplay from the drop-down menu in the Select Axis frame, check the Axis checkbox in the Show frame, and click OK or Apply.
