# Adding or removing a field


You can add a field to a visual by choosing it on the **Fields list** pane. You can also drag it to a drop target on the visual or to a field well. There is a 1:1 correspondence of drop targets to field wells for each visual type, so you can use either method.

On some charts, the **Axis title** field is hidden when there are two or more fields in the **Value** field on any side of the chart. This effect can happen with the following charts:
+ Bar charts
+ Line charts
+ Box plots
+ Combo charts
+ Waterfall charts

To remove a field from a visual, clear selection from it in the **Fields list** pane. Or choose an on-visual editor or field well that uses that field, and then choose **Remove** from the context (right-click) menu.

You can also let Amazon Quick map the field to the most appropriate visual element. To do so, choose the field in the **Fields list** pane. Amazon Quick adds the field to the visual by populating the first empty field well that corresponds with that field type (either measure or dimension). If all of the visual elements are already populated, Amazon Quick determines the most appropriate field well and replaces the field in it with the field you selected.

**Note**  
You can add the same value to the same visual multiple times. You can do so to show the same value with different aggregations or table calculations applied. By default, the fields all display the same label. You can edit the names by using the **Properties** panel, which you open by choosing the **V**-shaped icon at top right.
