y axis - how do I create a text value

josephinetedesc — Mon, 07 Nov 2016 04:20:06 GMT

Hi all

in a graph i have a time dimension on the x axis,

but in the left hand y axis I would like to add a text box such as "Waiting times Median"

and in the right hand y axis I would like add a text box such as the "average number of patients per month"

Is this possible?

Add the texts - click Add next to Properties | Presentation | Text in Chart. Enter the angle (90 or 270). Then use Shift Control to drag the text the correct location

Thank you Jonathon - is this limited to only 1 y axis?

Add as many texts as you like and position them wherever you want. Just click Add again to add another.

You can move your text by dragging it with mouse.

Select your chart, then hold Ctrl+Shift Key, then with mouse you can drag the text wherever you want.
