Description

Click to select a property to use for setting the value. Note that only string properties can be used on axes.

The string value of the property will be interpreted as a column name or an expression containing column names. See Properties in Expressions for more information about the syntax for property expressions.

When other values are to be specified there may be other limitations to which values are allowed.
