Categorical and Continuous Variables in Group X or Y Zones

In Graph Builder, when a categorical variable is added to the Group X or Group Y zone, a partition is created for each level of the variable.

When a continuous variable is added to a grouping zone, Graph Builder uses quantiles of the data to divide the variable into five groups. To change the number of groups, follow these steps:

1. Right-click the grouping variable label and select Levels > Number of Levels.

2. Type in the number of levels that you want to display.

3. Click OK.
