Axis Requirements for Composite Charts

The table below outlines the requirements for each axis in a chart that is used as a layer of a Composite chart. If any of the requirements are not met, the Composite chart will not render.

For information on how to create a Composite chart, see Creating a Composite Chart.

Note
Note

An axis with a DataType of "Numeric" or "Time" can be shared by multiple chart layers. An axis with a DataType of "String" cannot be shared.
