For a Bar or Line Chart based on a detail table, you also have to select a Category: one
data field (in the detail table) of which the values will appear under the bars or the line; in
other words, on the x axis.

Next to Values, select data fields with a numerical value.
4.
Adjust the label of each of the selected data fields as needed: click on the label and type
the new one.
In Bar and Line Charts with Data Fields as input data, these labels appear under the x-
axis of the chart.
Note
Labels are used in the legend. They will be visible when the legend is enabled.
5.
Select a color for each of the selected fields: click on the color to open the Edit Color
dialog.
The Preview shows what the chart looks like with the current settings, whilst the Data Preview
shows which data will be passed to the amCharts library.
Preparing a data table
By default, a chart that is based on a detail table shows one series ("category") of bars/points
per record. Each of the bars or points in a series has its own color and label, and represents
one data field in that record.
The following image shows a detail table. Both of the Bar charts below are based on that detail
table. The difference between the Bar charts is caused by the number of selected data fields
(one, or two). The values of the data field 'Year' are used as Category (on the x-axis).
