Illustrator :: How To Use Line Graph Tool To Insert A Graph

Oct 9, 2012

I'm totally new to Illustrator and want to use the line graph tool to insert a graph that passes through 0,0 and runs to 24,24.  I want the x and y axes to meet at the origin.  As it isn't working as you can see.  I've used 0, 0 and 24, 24 as my data points.  Is there any way I can change how this is presented so it's clear that it's at the origin?
 
I'm using CS6, if that matters.

Illustrator :: Insert New Data On Existing Graph / Graph Deletes

Jun 25, 2013

When I insert new data on an existing graph (for example, just adding a new year of data) and press insert, it just deletes the graph entirely. My only option is to recreate the entire graph which is frustrating because I lose its format and colors.

Illustrator :: Can't Edit Graph Value Axis When There Are Multiple Graph Types In One Chart

May 30, 2013

Illustrator can make graphs with lines and bars / columns, for example from the docs: [URL] .....
 
However, when I create a graph like this, I seem to lose the ability to manually set the value axis using "override calculated values".
 
To reproduce this problem: Create a graph like the example, with bars and an axis on the left, lines and an axis on the right. Unlike the example, don't fix the numbers so the lines match up neatly - have one side go up to just under 20, one up to just under 250, so there are mismatched markers and numbers of divisions on each side.Try to make the markers and numbers of divisions match up, so the side that goes up to 20 actually goes up to 25 and has the same number of divisions as the other side.Everything I've tried doesn't work:

If I select the whole graph and go to 'Graph Type', I can't set Value Axis options. In earlier versions it's greyed out, in CS6 I can access it but clicking 'Okay' does nothing.If I select the whole graph and chose one graph type, I can set the Value Axis options, but that selected graph type then applies to the whole chart,If I use the Group Selection tool to select one of the series, and open 'Graph Type' options, changing the Value Axis options has no effectIf I use the Group Selection tool to select all series that share an axis and open 'Graph Type' options, changing the Value Axis options still has no effectIf I use the Group Selection tool to select the axis ticks group itself, or the axis line and axis ticks groups themselves, or the axis labels, axis line and axis ticks, or the axis labels, axis line, axis ticks and associated data series, etc, changing the Value Axis options also has no effect 

It seems like this feature is broken and it seems like the example in the manual was carefully chosen to use a rare combination of numbers where it would actually look right.

Illustrator :: Multiple Symbols For Line Graph?

Aug 29, 2013

how to change the default square data points in a line graph.  When I try to got to Object>Graph>Marker it is greyed out.  When I click on a circle symbol and then try to go to Object>Graph>Design, it is greyed out.  I am so frustrated trying to do the simplest things in this program.  The online tutorials on how to make graphs do not seem to explain the simplest of tasks, only the difficult.

Illustrator :: How To Copy A Graph From PowerPoint

Apr 5, 2013

I converted GraphPad file from version 6 to version 5 and then some of file can be copied & pasted to Illustrator Artboard. Most of them cannot be copied properly. It shows only axis title with empty box way far away from Artboard.

Illustrator :: Convert Graph Type To Outlines?

Feb 7, 2014

I have created a page full of column and line graphs for our newspaper operation.
 
Our output and printing specs are such that we always convert type to outlines to be safe for any device in the production pipeline that might be missing a font.
 
On this page of graphs, all the descriptive type and graphics I have added to the page let me do this.
 
But when I select the type that belongs to the graph and choose Create Outlines in the Type menu, it does not create outlines.
 
I also cannot delete that type.
 
How can I force this type to turn into outlines/paths?

Illustrator :: Difficulty In Arranging Graph Elements In CS6

Aug 18, 2012

In every version up to CS 5, I could use the direct select tool to select an element of a graph (e.g., a tick mark, an axis or a data point) and move it to another layer. This was very useful because it allows one to hide certain elements or, more importantly, choose which element appears on top when two elements (e.g., two data points) overlap without having to break the graph.
 
I can't seem to do this in CS6. Is there a new trick I need to learn here or has this functionality intentionally been deactivated?

Illustrator :: Is It Possible To Link Excel Data To Graph

May 14, 2013

I'm laying out a report with many graphs of similar styling, the client is to provide an Excel doc with the figures and I need to redraw them as graphs.Is it possible to design the graph style in Illustrator, import the data from the spreadsheet to the graph and then place the graph(s) into InDesign. Essentially, this is what I'd like to achieve:
 
1) Style/design a graph in Illustrator
2) Import spreadsheet data into Illustrator graph (a step I'm also haveing problem with - is it possible to import an entire Excel doc or do you have to copy and paste each cell individually)
3) Import Illustrator graph into Indesign
4) If original data in Excel is changed/updated and the document is saved, data will update in Illstrator and therefore in InDesign.

Illustrator :: Negative Graph Values In Graphic Columns?

Feb 8, 2013

I can enter negative graph data and have the affected graph bars extend below the 0 line no problem.
 
with flatm 2D-appearing column designs, this isn't much problem; graph column designs which are meant to be 3D in appearance, ie with depth/both, simply appear flipped and the bottoms of such columns don't respect the correct vanishing point, such as a 3D solid bar type column. Is there a way to make such dimensional graph bars look correct visually when their data values go negative?

Illustrator :: Graph Data Entry Window Be Non Functional?

Jan 15, 2014

In a new Illustrator file, I select "Object...Graph...Graph Type" and make sure I have pie graph selected. Then I draw the circle I want to be a pie graph, make sure it's selected and choose "Object...Graph...Data" which opens the graph data entry "spreadsheet" but the text box and buttons on the top are greyed out and there are no visible cells. If I move the pointer around inside the window, it does become the "row/column" resize pointer as if there are cells present but disabled.

Illustrator :: How To Add Prefixes And Suffixes To Graph Column Total Labels

Apr 16, 2013

Adding prefixes and suffixes like the percentage sign, degrees, currency and other units to Illustrator graph tool Axis labels is relatively easy: you go to Object > Graph > Type then Value Axis then fill in the Prefix and Suffix boxes under 'Add labels'.
 
There doesn't seem to be any way, however, to add such signs and symbols to the labels that show column totals on each column in a bar or column chart.
 
Adding prefixes and suffixes to the value axis labels - works on the axis, but isn't repeated in the column total labels.Adding characters to the text that defines the labels (the %02 etc that is grouped in the design that is then applied to the columns). Adding anything past the 3rd character seems to simply break the link with the text and the data (e.g. adding a percent symbol like %03% just prints %02% in each column, as does adding it in quotes, after paragraph breaks, etc)Adding the prefix or suffix in a separate point text item doesn't work because you can't predict the length of the column total and because it won't apply any kerning with the adjacent character.I can add the symbols in manually, but it's time consuming, and has to be re-done every time the chart is refreshed.
 
logical equivalent of a feature that exists for axis labels.

Illustrator :: Fill And Text Editing On Excel Imported Bar Graph

Feb 1, 2013

I am trying to modify a bar graph that I have imported as a pdf from excel, and am having some trouble with customizing the color fill on the bars of the bar graph.  When I select the object/bar and then fill with a different color, I see no change.  However the menu shows the new color I selected for that particular object.  Is there something weird about the type of object that the bar is when it is imported from excel?

OK I figured out that for some reason the bars on the bar graph are imported as clipping masks - very weird, you need to release the clipping mask, deselect the bar, select and delete the background shading, then fill the bar (which was previously the mask, I believe?)  Why excel exports like this? 
 
I notice something similar with the imported text labels associated with the same graph.  When I select the text and change the font size, for some strange reason it can size up (say, from 10pt to 12pt) but not down (day, from 10pt to 8pt)  It seems weird when I try to edit it at all really, as if the element was not a text element, is there some way to convert it to a text object?  Ok this is working properly now, don't know why it was wonky before. 
 
I am using CS5 with a Mac running 10.7.5
 
Also I am using excel for mac 2011

Illustrator :: Modify WMF Graph Generated By Statistical Program (make It Look Nice)

Nov 26, 2013

How to edit a .wmf file that is a graph and was generated by a statistical program. I need to visually enhance this graph, making  it look more appealing for publication in a manuscript. It's very simple, just need to make rectangles behind the existing text  that form the columns in the graph, and shade the rows of the graph  to assist the reader to follow the row across the graph. While I can edit the text on the .wmf, I can't get a rectangle to be placed under the existing text unless I lower the opacity of the rectangle which won't work as I need black and white only.  I've tried converting the text to rectangle, but the stretching of the text won't be acceptable.  What would be the workflow I should attempt to follow to enhance the looks of the document in illustrator?  Is there a trick to getting the rectangle to behave?  It works just fine if I actually type NEW text in, then place a rectangle, but I'll have to work with the info in the .wmf file - can't re-type it all.
