Use the Data Axis tab to configure y-axis properties on your
chart. The Data Axis tab appears on most SPC chart configuration
dialog panels. In the Histogram chart properties, this axis is
called the Frequency Axis, but the properties are the same. The
Pareto chart uses different settings for the y-axis configuration.
For information on Pareto chart properties, refer to the section
Pareto chart
properties.
