Graph Frame

Whether or not a graph frame showing 100% is to be displayed.

 

 

Disp sign

Whether or not a negative (±) sign is to be displayed. If a

 

negative sign is used, the bar graph can be displayed in the

 

reverse direction for negative values. (See note 2.)

 

 

100% value

The value of the denominator for percentage calculations. You

 

cannot set numerals of 0 or less as the 100% value.

 

 

Display %

Whether or not the result of percentage calculations is to be

 

displayed as numerals.

 

 

Size of %

Set the character size of numerals for when percentages are

 

displayed.
