Histograms of Selected Variables

If one or more interval variables are selected in a data table when you select Graph →Histogram, then the Histogram dialog box does not appear. Instead histograms are created of the selected interval variables.

You can also select nominal and interval variables and select Graph →Histogram. A bar chart appears for each nominal variable; a histogram appears for each interval variable.

If a variable has a Frequency role, it is automatically used as the frequency variable for the plots; the frequency variable does not need to be selected.

If you create a matrix of plots from selected variables, you can close the matrix by pressing the F11 key while any plot is active and selecting from the pop-up menu. Alternatively, you can use the Workspace Explorer to quickly close plots. (See the section Workspace Explorer.)
