| Move titles, legends, lines, etc., by dragging. | Change a scatterplot to a line plot (or any kind of plot to any other kind of plot) from the contextual toolbar. | ||||
| Change the aspect ratio from the contextual toolbar. | Change the properties—color, size, alignment—of any object—titles, legends, lines, axes, etc.—by double-clicking on it. | ||||
| Customize the look of a point and add, remove, or customize its label by right-clicking on the point. | Add new axis ticks and add, remove, or customize labels by right-clicking on the axis. | ||||
| Change spacing between bars, or make them overlap, or stack them, or convert them to percentages, by right-clicking on the graph. | Hide an object, or lock its position, by right-clicking. | ||||
