I know this has been discussed before so you should peruse the
list archives.

You bring it up in an editor, make whatever changes you want to
make, and then save it out.  The reports are all in scheme so
you don't need to rebuild anything.

Are you trying to change the graph to include numbers?  Or do you
want to have a table that follows the graph (e.g. under it)?  The
former would be pretty difficult.  The latter would be much easier.
The latter would almost be the combination of the graph report with
a table report, and indeed you might even be better off just creating
a MultiColumn report where one entry has the graph and the other entry
is a table-based report..  And just set the timeframe settings the
same.
