Make a chart

Updated November 3, 2026

Charts in Cloud Sheets by MyCloudSuites are made from your cells, so they change when the numbers change.

Make one

  1. Select the cells, including the row and column headings you want as labels.
  2. On the Insert tab, in Charts, choose a kind: Column, Bar, Line, Pie, Area, Scatter and more.
  3. The chart appears over the sheet. Drag it where you want it, and drag its corners to resize it.

Change how it looks

Click the chart, then use the Chart Design tab:

  • Chart Elements: add or remove the title, data labels, the legend, gridlines, trendlines and error bars.
  • Chart Styles and Change Colors: pick a look.
  • Change chart type: switch to another kind of chart.
  • Switch row/column: swap which data is plotted along the axis and which is a series.
  • Select data: change the cells the chart uses.
  • Move Chart: give it a chart sheet of its own, or move it onto another sheet.

Sparklines

For a small chart inside a single cell, use Insert › Sparklines.

Charts are saved in the workbook and open in Excel as charts you can keep editing.
