Show Major Labels
To display minor tick labels, major tick labels must be displayed.
Select the Show Major Labels check box to display major tick labels. Other major tick label display controls are on the Tick Labels tab and on the Custom Tick Labels tab.
Minor Labels
Select the Enable Minor Labels check box to display minor tick labels.
Select the Minor Labels on Major Ticks check box to display both a minor tick label and a major tick label for each major tick. This option is only meaningful for time series labels, in which you specify different tick label types for major and minor tick marks. For example, month and day.
To view both labels in the graph, type a value in the Offset Major by % text box. The major tick labels move the specified distance away from the center of the page, in units of % of font height.
Other Options
- Select the Plus Signs check box to display a plus "+" sign to the left of positive tick labels.
- Select the Minus Signs check box to display a minus "-" sign to the left of negative tick labels.
