    The Axes page of the currently selected charting type is filled with the Cartesian axes, in case the currently selected charting type of the chart area is a Cartesian chart (see  Chart Areas for more info). The Cartesian Axes model consists of five axes in 3D and four axes in 2D, as shown by the following images:
