Specify Range Dialog

The Specify Range Dialog allows you to adjust the date range being displayed in the chart window. It performs the same function as other date scaling actions except it allows finer control over the date range being displayed.

&  For help using charts, see Displaying Data in a Chart.

Specifying the Chart Date Range

To specify a new start or end to the date range displayed in the chart, use the date controls. In addition, the Adjust Dates range can be set to keep the date separated by a specific size. This is useful for moving to a new section of the data without losing the current magnification.

To adjust the dates independently, or to adjust the dates to a size that is not listed, select Custom Range.

&  For help using the date controls, see the help for Date Selection Controls.

What Do I Do Next?

When you have selected the new date range, press the OK button. If you would like to exit the dialog without modifying the date range, press the Cancel button.

How Did I Get Here?

The Specify Date Range Dialog appears when you select Select Date Range… on the Chart menu or from the context menu for the date axis of a chart window.
