# Charts measure series

In this section, let's look at the measure customization options specific to charts.

#### 1. Show or hide measures

You can hide a measure by unselecting the checkbox alongside it. To render hidden measures again, you just need to re-select the checkbox.

Let's hide the 2024 Plan measure.

#### 2. Change the chart type&#x20;

Inforiver automatically renders the chart for a measure based on its scale. Notice how the Actuals and Plan are on a different scale (Y-axis 2) and plotted as line charts. You can select the chart type from the dropdown and plot measures as line, bar, or area charts.

#### 3. Change the Y-axis

You can choose to plot measures on Y-axis 1 or Y-axis 2. In this case, Inforiver automatically plotted the Actuals and Plan on the secondary y-axis based on the scale of the measures. You can override this and select the y-axis from the dropdown.

#### 4. Responsive

The Analytics+ visual has been designed to be responsive to the canvas size i.e. the most relevant data is automatically displayed. Notice how the relative variances for FC and PY have not been plotted when the Responsive option is enabled.&#x20;

If you manually enable the relative variances, the Responsive option is automatically turned off.

When you resize the visual with the Responsive option enabled, the chart size is adjusted and the core chart is retained. Additional charts like variances are displayed based on the available canvas size.

#### 5. Auto series height

Analytics+ plots the height of the chart relative to the available canvas size. If the Responsive option is disabled, you can specify the height of each chart by disabling the Auto series height option. To revert height overrides and restore the default config , click the <img src="/files/Ws4BuTlDkpbYnPTvIOiX" alt="" data-size="line">button.

#### 6. Reversing variance calculations

Generally, variances are calculated as AC-PY/AC-PL or AC-FC. You can reverse these to PY-AC/PL-AC or FC-AC.
