Add a border and background to a graph in Numbers on Mac
You can add a border and a background colour to any 2D bar, column, area or scatter plot.

Click the graph, then in the Format
sidebar, click the Graph tab.
In the Graph Options section of the sidebar, select the Border tick box.
To add a background colour to the graph, or to choose a style and colour for the border, click the disclosure arrow next to Background & Border Style, then use the controls in that section.
You can also add a border around your sheet. To learn more, see Add a border around a sheet.
