# How do I change the way chart data is plotted?

## Content



To change the way the chart data is plotted, complete the following steps:

1.  In the Properties window, expand the **ChartArea** node.
2.  Expand the node of appropriate axis.
3.  In **Grid Minor**, set **Max** and **Min** (maximum and minimum interval to display on axis) and set **UnitMajor** (numerical interval on axis).

For example, if **Max** is set to **20**, **Min** is set to **0**, and **UnitMajor** is set to **5**, every fifth number will display 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 on the axis.
