I would like date labels on one of my axes. Can Grapher create a plot from a a worksheet column that contains my dates?
A. Yes! Grapher 4 requires data to be in either numeric or date format to create a graph. If a date column is chosen for one of the variables in a graph, the corresponding axis automatically uses date labels. To change the format of the labels, double click on the axis and select the Tick Labels tab. Press the Format button under the Major Tick Labels group. In the Date/Time Format section, choose the desired label format or create a new format. Click OK and the axis will automatically be updated. If your data is not in date format in the worksheet, but you would like Grapher to use date labels for the axis, follow these instructions. Open a plot window and create the graph using the modified data set. Select the numeric “date value” column for one of the axes. To change the axis labels from numbers to text dates, double click on the axis containing the numeric dates to edit the axis. In Grapher 4, click the Tick Labels tab and then select the Date/time option button in the Major Label
