Maximize your analysis by modifying properties
Access the small multiple chart properties by right-clicking and choosing Properties, or from the toolbar at the top of the Small Multiple Charts task pane.
Axis scales
Axes: control the minimum and maximum values of the vertical axes.
NOTE: You can't set the minimum to a value between -1 and 0 or 0 and 1. The chart will round to 1. If you need a percentage smaller than 1 then create a measure of Value * 100 and set the format string of the axis to 0.00"%" (navigate to Using Percentages).
Match to: set the chart to have the same scale as another chart on the same sheet. The blank option means it isn't sharing a scale.
Layout
Max charts on Columns: the maximum number of charts displayed in each column.
Max charts on Rows: the maximum number of charts displayed in each row.
NOTE: If the total number of charts exceeds the number of rows multiplied by the number of columns, then some charts won't be displayed. To display the charts, increase either the number of rows or columns.
When wrapping charts:
Auto Arrange: Anaplan XL overrides the column and row counts to give a balanced view of the data.
NOTE: The column and row counts still apply as maximums. If there aren't enough spaces, the warning message will appear. For example, if there are three columns and one row, only three charts will be shown. If there are more than that number of charts, the charts will be displayed as a 2-by-2 block.
Fix Column Count: uses the Column count first to determine the number of Columns displayed, then displays as many charts as possible given the row count.
Space chart areas: when selected, creates a space between each chart.
