X/Y Error Bars

Use the X or Y Error Bars dialog to display error bars for 2D charts.

If an element of a data series is selected, this command works on that data series only. If no element is selected, this command works on all data series.

To access this command...

Choose Insert - X Error Bars, or Insert - Y Error Bars (Charts)


An error bar is an indicator line that spans over a range from x/y - NegativeErrorValue to x/y + PositiveErrorValue. In this term, x or y is the value of the data point. When "standard deviation" is selected, x or y is the mean value of the data series. NegativeErrorValue and PositiveErrorValue are the amounts calculated by the error bar function or given explicitly.

Note Icon

The Insert - X/Y Error Bars menu command is only available for 2D charts.
