A graph template is a file containing all the necessary information to create a graph including layers size, axis settings, plot symbol type, and data plot styles. The template file contains graph objects that help you generate all origin graphs.

What is a graph theme?
It is a set of graph properties stored in an Excel or XML file format on a disk. A graph theme is applied to change various object properties like layer size, page color, plot symbol type, etc. Moreover, you can use it for any graph at any time.
Different types of graphs?
You can select from various types of graphs. Each graph displays certain kinds of information and properties you can adjust per your requirements. To see which will best display the information you need to convey, experiment with the different graph types and display properties. Here are some types of graphs;
- Bar graph: used to compare amounts or to show trends and can be oriented vertically or horizontally.
- Histogram: represents the frequency distribution of values.
- Bar min and max: shows the minimum and maximum values of a data series.
- Line graph: illustrates trends in values along a continuous scale.
- Area graph: indicates trends in values or the shaded area provides emphasis to differences in quantities.
- Scatterplot: displays a relationship between the values plotted on the grid.
- Box plot: used to illustrate the statistical distribution of values.
- Bubble graph: the size of bubbles shows a certain data value.
- Polar graph: typically used in mathematical and statistical applications.
- Pie graph: useful for indicating proportions and ratios.
- Scatterplot matrix: used to determine patterns and relationships between the variables.
How to create a graph?
Before plotting and creating a graph, you must identify the information you want to convey. First, determine what you want to illustrate in your data either data trends, relationships, distributions, or proportions. Determining what you want to display will assist you in selecting the appropriate type of graph to use.
For all features, you can create a graph in a dataset. The dataset can be the following;
- A feature class
- A layer
- An integer raster
- Tabular data
In addition, choose your graph type appropriately because some graph types are drafted to illustrate a limited amount of data effectively.

FAQ’s:
What is the difference between a graph template and a graph theme?
A common difference is that a graph template is used to create a graph and a graph theme is applied to quickly change the look of the created graph.
