You can specify your own custom Diagram Banners by creating Diagram Banner configurations; thus, you can specify the display position (Header/Footer/Both) for specific markings based on their categories and/or have them displayed on separate banners. To create Diagram Banner configurations, ensure the working project already has Data Marking Categories created in it.

Important

Before creating Diagram Banner configurations, make sure to review the information provided on the Specifying Diagram Banners page.
