You can choose to display data in a Graph visualization using a specific graph style. To display properly, each graph style requires certain types of data. For requirements for each graph style, see Minimum object requirements for each graph style. For an introduction to graph reports and complete details on each graph style available in MicroStrategy, see the Graphing chapter in the MicroStrategy Advanced Reporting Guide.
