Plot a Line at a Given Value on a Graph

You can plot a value on a graph with a numeric axis.

1. Select the graph.

2. Choose Graph | Plot Value.

The formula editor appears.

3. Enter a number or formula for the value you want to plot.

4. Click OK or press Enter or Return to accept the formula and close the formula editor.

The formula result appears as a colored line and as a color-coded value at the bottom of the plot.

Note: If you leave the argument of a function blank, Fathom will use the attribute on the axis as the function's argument. You could, instead, use the name of another attribute in the formula.

You can plot as many values as you want.

If the graph is split, a line appears for each subgroup; the value reported below is for all the data in the graph.
