How to create a histogram from a stretched raster

Hello all:

I have calculated the percentage of a specific cover type within an animal's home range and now would like to display this data in a histogram. The data is continuous, going from 0 -1. I see that a histogram can be accessed in the Properties, Symbology section of a layer, but I would like to create a histogram and assign titles to the graph and each axis. The data I need has already been calculated, so I don't necessarily need to calculate a histogram by a zone (Zonal Histogram). I've tried using Zonal Histogram and I only get a data table.

Do you have suggestions on the best method for me to create a histogram of the stretched raster data?

I've tried using Zonal Histogram and I only get a data table.

You can make a bar graph from the data table - or graph it in Excel.

Thanks, that was a really easy fix. I assumed there should be another method rather than creating a table and then using GIS or Excel to manipulate the data. Problem solved!
