Limiting and Sorting Axis Points

You can limit the number of X-axis or Z-axis labels to a predefined number. The X-axis defines the category and the Z-axis defines the series. You can use this feature to display only the N highest or N lowest values for a field or calculated Y value. For example, to display the 10 highest revenue accounts, you can chart the Revenue field in descending order and limit the X-axis to 10 data points.
