Click a Histogram Scaling option:
Linear displays histogram data linearly. Bin counts
smaller than the maximum counts are scaled linearly by
dividing the bin count by the maximum bin count.
Horizontal histograms have a maximum of 500 bins while
vertical histograms have a maximum of 200 bins.
Log displays histogram data logarithmically. Bin counts
smaller than the maximum counts are scaled
logarithmically. Logarithmic scaling provides better
visual details for bins with low counts.
