Creating Charts

 

To specify the number of decimal places you want to display, type a number in the 

Decimals field.

To change the position of data point values, choose an option from the Data Point 

Settings pop-up menu.

Use the Font panel (Format > Font > Show Fonts) to choose a font, font size, and style 

for the data point labels.

For pie charts, you can show data point labels as a percentage of the whole or as 

absolute values by selecting or deselecting “Show Pie Values as Percentages” in the 

Data Point Settings pop-up menu. You can also show the series names.

Some chart styles offer further options for formatting series elements. See the 

following sections for information about special formatting options for pie charts, bar 

charts, line charts, and area charts. 

For pie charts, Pages charts only the first data set in the Chart Data Editor (the first 

data point for each data series). If the data series are in rows in the Chart Data Editor, 

only the first column is charted; if the data series are in columns in the Chart Data 

Editor, only the first row is charted. Thus, one pie chart represents a single data set, 

and each wedge is one element in that set. Other data sets in the Chart Data Editor 

are maintained, but they are not displayed in the pie chart. You can chart any data set 

by moving it to the first position in its row or column.

Select the chart, then click to select a single wedge.

To select additional wedges, do one of the following:

 To select all the wedges, choose Edit >Select All (or press Command-A).

 To select noncontiguous wedges, hold down the Command key as you select each 

wedge.

 To select a continuous range of wedges, select the first wedge, then hold down the 

Shift key as you select the last wedge.
