Changing the Bin Size
You can increase the width of the of
bins (
steps) in your histogram by raising the value for
Bin Size. This results in fewer bins in the histogram. Lowering the value for
Bin Size results in more, narrower bins.
note | If the bin size of the WzHistogram tool is extremely small (i.e. ≤0.001) then the selected data may not appear to be selected. |
The procedure for changing the size of the bins in the histogram plot includes these steps:
1. Select Attributes=>Histogram Attributes. This brings up the Histogram Attributes dialog box.
2. Click
MB1 on the
Bin Size radio button.
3. Type a value in the Bin Size text field to adjust the overall height of the histogram.
4. In the Histogram Attributes dialog box, click Apply or OK.

note | If the variable you are using is byte data, the Bin Size value must be larger than 1. |
