After creating your chart, three contextual Ribbons appear under Chart Tools when the chart is selected: Design, Layout and Format, from where you can format your chart, apply various styles and change the chart layout.
From the contextual Design Ribbon, you can apply various predefined chart layouts and chart styles as well as change the chart type and modify the existing chart data. There are a wide variety of chart styles both in 2-D and 3-D formats that you can apply from the Chart Styles group on the Ribbon. Click the More button to display a gallery of all available chart styles.
For each chart type, you can also apply a preset layout from the Chart Layouts group. Again, clicking the More button on the Chart Layouts group will display a gallery of all available layouts.
