Graph forms. In the left sub-window are text labels and numbers used to produce the graph shown in the right sub-window. Each can be scrolled independently, and you can adjust their relative size by pointing at the thin, dark bar in the lower scrolling bar and sliding it horizontally to the desired position.

Since the bar chart form of presentation has been selected, the values in B1, C1, and D1 are converted into successive vertical bars of appropriate height and placed above the “Net Sales” label (A1), and so forth for all information in the table. Line and scatter charts use the same information but replace bars with the proper artwork. A pie chart, on the other hand, uses the information in columns A and B and ignores the rest.
