Placing Grid Labels and Tick Marks
The X-Axis and Y-Axis pop-up menus in the Axis pane of the Chart Inspector provide an array
of options for placing tick marks and labels along the value axis or the series axis. These popup menus, pictured below, contain different options depending upon which kind of chart
you have selected.
For vertical bar charts (column charts), line charts, and area charts, the Y-axis is the value
axis, while the X-axis is the series axis; for horizontal bar charts, the X-axis is the value axis.
