You can create multiple graphs by selecting a second horizontal
category (X-axis).
The number of graphs created depends on the number of values
in the field you selected. For example, if you select a field with
two values, two graphs are generated. If you select a field with
ten values, ten graphs are generated.
You can select the second horizontal category from the Field
selection tab in the Graph Assistant.
Multiple graphs can appear in either merged format or in columns.
