Chart Type

This button is used to change the chart type being displayed.  It offers quick access to the most frequently used charts.  To access histogram or scatter charts (or to return to standard chart types), use the dropdown in the Chart Setup window.  Even more options are available in the Advanced Editor, by clicking on the button in the Advanced Designer.
