# How can I use the logarithmic scale?

[Logarithmic scale](https://www.forbes.com/sites/naomirobbins/2012/01/19/when-should-i-use-logarithmic-scales-in-my-charts-and-graphs/#29cadefe5e67) is a nonlinear scale used for a large range of positive multiples of some quantity. Logarithmic scaling helps you better respond to skewness where one or a few data points are much larger than the bulk of the data.

To apply logarithmic scaling, go to ‘Settings’, ‘General’ settings tab and click on ‘Logarithmic scaling’ under ‘Display options.’ Your chart will automatically adjust to reduce the skewness caused by outliers.
