Keep Shape (3D Bars)

Specify whether to keep the shape (i.e. the aspect ratio of the bar width in X and Z direction for XYY 3D Bars plot) of 3D Bars graph. For 3D XYZ Bar, the Keep Shape box is checked by default; For XYY 3D Bar, the Keep Shape box is unchecked by default.

When the Keep Shape' box is checked, Width(in %) slider will appear; When the Keep Shape box is unchecked, X Direction Bar Width(in %) and Y Direction Bar Width(in %) sliders will show up for 3D XYZ bar, X Direction Bar Width(in %) and Z Direction Bar Width(in %) sliders will show up for 3D XYY bar.

X/Y/Z Direction Bar Width(in %)(3D Bars)

These sliders are used to control the width of the bar on X/Y/Z direction, on a scale from 0 to 100. This value is a percent of the bar width.
100 means there is no spacing between the bars in that direction.
0 means the bar will be displayed as a plane in that direction.

Gap between Subgroup(%)(3D XYZ Stacked Bar)

When Offset within Subgroup (in Group tab) for Cumulative/Incremental is selected and Subgrouping has been set up, you are allowed to adjust the Gap between subgroups.

Gap between Subgroup + Gap between Bar = 1 - Y Direction Bar Width

So,

Gap between Subgroup = (1 - Y direction Bar Width)/n*100% , n is number of subgroups.

When Gap between Subgroup is 0, bar between subgroup will be side by side without any gap; when Gap between Subgroup is 100, gap between subgroup is equal to Gap between Bar.

Width (in %)

For the XYZ 3D Bars graph, checking Keep Shape box makes this check box available. Adjust the bar width in both X and Y directions.

For 3D XYY graphs(3D Wall/3D Waterfall/3D Ribbons), adjust the wall/ribbon width in the Z direction. For 3D waterfall graphs, the width is set to 0 by default.

Base Plane at

Note: In the following graphs, the Z scale is set From = 3.6 to To = -3.6.

Related System Variable: @LRBM

Shift in Z by percent of scale range, 0=bottom, 100=top (XYZ 3D Bars)

Check this check box to enter a number between 0 and 100 and shift the base plane along the Z axis.

Subset(for XYY 3D Bars or 3D Ribbons)

Just like the 2D bar graph, you are also allowed to group the data points in one plot as multiple subsets.
