Format an axis break.

Format an axis break when you want a clearer gap style or a break that spans the full chart width.

Step 1: Open your chart in the editor

Open a Chartbuddy chart that already has an axis break. This works the same in Hub, Embed, Google Slides, and PowerPoint.

Step 2: Left-click the axis break

Left-click the break handle on the value scale. The break toolbar opens with Break Style and Coverage.

Step 3: Left-click Break Style and pick a wider wave gap

Left-click Break Style, then Left-click a wider option under Wave such as 8px. The break redraws with that gap.

Step 4: Left-click Full width coverage

Left-click the Full width (includes axis) coverage control. The break spans across the plot, including the axis.

Watch the short clip above for the full click path.
