how to create a new XYScatter series based on dynamic conditions. For example, I have a very large, unsorted table with three columns: TGT, X, Y, Z.
TGT is an integer from 1-99 and is being filtered dynamically with an Advanced Filter. Anywhere from 0 to 10 conditions are being filtered by the Advanced Filter.
I would like to create a new series for each unique instance of TGT, with or without filtering.
What I want to achieve is a script that would create a new scatter plot of multiple series from a selected block of cell. I found a thread that was similar but what is different from my data is that my x values are different for each series.
The format of the data is in the following format, the first series will the first x,y pair, the 2nd series would be the second x,y pair. I don't know if it'll be an issue but one thing is that the date might be different lengths. For instance, the 3rd series, only has 4 data points, whereas the other series contains 6 data points?
The following code is supposed to produce six series on an xlXYScatter chart. It produces seven with the seventh series being a repeat of the sixth but named series 7.
Sub Chart2()
Dim DataRange As Range Dim CellString As String 'Stores a cell range in the form "AA27:AB39" Dim CurrentSeries As Integer Dim SeasonCount As Integer
I am using the following code to delete all of the series in the chart. It is give type mismatch error.
Sub allchannelchart() Dim i As Integer, s As SeriesCollection ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("allchan").Activate 'ActiveChart.PlotArea.Select For Each s In ActiveChart.SeriesCollection s.Delete Next s
I need to plot multiple series in a scatterplot. The problem is that the number of series is user-defined. And also, the number of data poitns in each series is different. I've looked it up already, but a lot of the examples i've seen don't account for the fact that I need to run through a loop and add series into my graph. In other words, i need a way to select a certain range each time it runs through the loop, and add the data as a series into the chart. Also, the user enters how many series there are, so I use that as a counter
Naturally, the first column contains someone's name. The other columns contain XY coordinates. These coordinates start at 375 and end at 499 on both axes.
I'm needing the points to show the member name and xy coordinates in the popup when hovering over the point.
How do I accomplish this?
Here's some sample data.
MEMBER X Y JOE 397 397 JIM 421 384 JANE 467 406 JEFF 389 395
I have downloaded a file called "scroller.xls" under the section "Excel charts". The file was made by Andy Pope and shows how to make a graph dynamic by combining Named Ranges and a scroll bar.
My chart is actually XY scatter chart with data points connected with smooth lines. I followed but when I start scrolling, the data points (smooth lines) got "eaten up" as I move.
I tried line chart and it works perfectly.
Does scrollbar work for XY scatter chart? Is there a different formula for XY scatter chart?
And I want the chart to be in new sheet, but I couldn't put the scrollbar in new sheet. I would like to know if it is possible when the chart is located in new sheet because my chart is quite large.
I am trying to create a line graph that will incorporate multiple columns of data in one series of data. The reason I do not place all of the data in one column is because it could exceed the maximum amount of rows allowed in excel. Also I need the data split up for viewing purposes.
I can easily just graph one column but how do I combine all the columns into one line graph with the data being in separate columns. Basically all the columns will be my Y values and X values are just 1:n.
Example Below:
Column AColumn B Column C159261037114812
Now in the example all of the values are x values.
I have a text file which is attached as "rawdata". It contains records of something (let's call it temperature) at different times on different days. My goal is to display a graph of temperature versus time so that I can visually analyze trends. I have hundreds of these files, all of different lengths. it is very important that I automate this process as much as possible.
Detail: (Here I describe what I have done so far; if this is inefficient or unnecessary, feel free to tell me) I open Excel 2010, click File, Open, and select the file that I want to parse. It is a TXT file, so the Text Import Wizard comes up. For step one, I select Fixed Width. I select File Origin: MS-DOS (PC-8). On step 2 of the wizard, I create column break lines to place all dates in the far left column. The next column contains the first column of numbers before the first dash (-). The next column contains only the dash - I will later select "ignore this column" to eliminate them. The next column contains the time stamps. I continue adding column breaks in the wizard until all of the data are parsed into columns in the same manner.
In step 3, I format the first column as "date (DMY)". The columns with the dashes I select "do not import". Everything else is "general". I click "finish", and the resultant workbook is attached, called "import".
Now, as to what I want to do: I want to display the "temperatures" as a graph vs a date/time axis. The reason I find this difficult is because the temperatures and times are not in neat columns, but are in 4 columns that go in a left-to-right and top-to-bottom progression and are broken up every few lines. (I am interested only in numbers that are displayed immediately to the left of a time-stamp. Therefore, the "record #"s should be ignored. We can delete the rows that say "record #" if can be done automatically.)
I would like to use multiple scatter plots and bar charts in one chart. Problem is that X-Axis goes horribly wrong every time, even if I have same points on both scatter and bar. Here is Data for 2 Scatter Plots
I start with Scatterplot and put those in the graph, then I add other data and change it to Bar Chart, but this is the point where X-Axis gets mixed up and scatter plot X data and Bar chart X data are not matching.
I'm working on a criteria matrix in Excel 2010 that automatically plots a single member in a Scatter Chart based on the two values. There are 4 suppliers listed in Column D starting in cell D4 thru D7. The "x" value is listed in Column E starting in cell E4 thru E7. The "y" value is listed in Column F starting in cell F4 thru F7.
The scatter chart will plot the points correctly, however, there are two issues: 1) If I try to insert a data label using the "Series Name," or in this case, the supplier's name, it will lists ALL of the suppliers Column D. It will not list the single supplier listed in cell D4. 2) The scatter chart appears with gridlines as a 4x4 matrix with a total of 16 cells. The "x" and "y" axis both start at 0 and go to 4. I can shade the entire chart one color. However, I want to shade some of the cells with darker and lighter shades.
I am trying to create a scatterplot from some data I have. I attempt this by selecting multiple columns using Ctrl and clicking on the letters above. This results in it plotting only the first selected column on the Y axis with only 1 2 3... on the X axis.
When I however select multiple columns by clicking on a column and dragging to more columns it does plot as I would expect with the first column as X values and the rest Y values.
I know it is possible to create a graph and add data manually but this is way slower and I think that it should be able to be done differently.
I need to get a macro that will auto plot number of series and name them according to a value. The attached file has an example, I have highlighted column H (x-axis) & K (y-axis) and the name of the series should be from column B. Each series has to end at the begining of the other series. The graph there is what I want to get. This is only example, I have over 20 series to be plotted!
I have been trying to create a userform that will generate a numerical list starting in a given cell using a starting number, an ending number, and an increment that the user will imput into a textbox. I have a userform set up, but I do not know how to do any coding. I have very little experience with excel.
I'm now trying to get my chart to use that range. I read at [URL] .... that I need to make sure my series reference is a fully qualified reference. So I've entered that series reference using the name of the workbook followed by the range name (=2012-PIRS.xlsx!SAM_CLAR2DEL). I have two copies of my workbook (one as xlsm with VBA project, and one with xlsx without VBA) and I can't get Excel to accept the series value in either workbook.

I have a small sheet that has a number in Column A and a larger number in Column B along with some data in Columns C and D. I wish to make a separate sheet that has rows numbered using the numerical range from Column A and Column B along with the data from Columns C & D
I need to create a long series of checkboxes in which each box is linked to the cell directly to the right of it. When I try to copy and past the checkbox, the link doesn't update. Which means I have to go in manually and change every checkbox link.
I need to create a chart where there is one horizontal series and one vertical series for each data point on the Y axis. Example: results for 5 people (series along the X axis) in trials vs. results for the same 5 people in the actual competition (second X series). The trials vs. actual is the Y series for a certain competition on date MMDDYY. The Y axis would represent the various competitions throughout the year.
I want to get an xyscatterplot with, in this example, 3 independent lines. In the real situation there are about 18 series in a data set with cell counts over 40k for the entire set. I'd like to do this in VBA, but would also be interested in seeing how to do it using the chart wizard
I have used named ranges to make a chart automatically adjust to a changing list of products in one column, but I do not know how to do this with multiple series. If I want to add products to this table, how can I make my chart dynamically adjust multiple series?
So the chart range is currently E5:H10. But I would need it to go beyond row 10 when I add new items.
I have a scatter graph that has over 100 curves that im need on one graph that at the moment i putting each x and y and name in by hand in series. I have been doing it for hours and have looked round the site to see if anything similar answer on ozgrid would help but im baffled
i was just wondering if there is an easier way of doing this
i havent really used macros but iv been reading up on it can i used it to do this?
I have added the table and graph and this is how i would like all the columns to look like its the table called graph that makes the curves that i would like to be able to add in quickly the rest im not too fussed about.
I have a cell with data such as: a0001-0004, a12, C8AF7-8, b17, j35-40 and i want it to output in the same cell(basically write-over the data): a0001, a0002, a0003, a0004, a12, C8AF7,C8AF8, b17, j35, j36, j37, j38, j39, j40.
I have several dynamic charts using named ranges, but I am charting 1 series of data. What about when I have multiple data sets or series and do not want to use PivotTables? Do I really have to make each one a named range? If that's the case, using VBA looks much simpler.
LABEL COUNT 1 of 2 empty cell 1 of 2 empty cell 1 of 2 empty cell 1 of 2 empty cell 1 of 2 empty cell 1 of 16 15 empty cells
I need to fill the empty cell with the "series" (2 of 2, 2 of 16, 3 of 16). This is just an example of data - there are all different series - 1 of 12, 1 of 5, etc.
Anyway - was hoping to highlight the whole column and be able to auto fill instead of having to extend each series. I have tried straightforward fill series which doesnt work of course. I have tried go to special - blanks but cant find right combo to make it work.
Will it work or do I have to either do manually or with a macro?
I have created a dynamic chart for multiple series. I have created this using the offset function and have named 20 ranges. The problem I have is that if only 19 of the 20 named ranges are populated it reads that the worksheet contains one or more invalid references.
