Highlight Area In A Chart Based On Set
Nov 30, 2011
I have been measuring variation against some key performance indicators and trying to plot them on a chart i.e., line chart.
Is there any way in Excel that i can highlight in different colours the area between the variable and benchmarks? I want to fill the area say as green when the variable performed better than benchmark (area between the variable line and benchmark line) and as red if variable under performed than benchmark (area between benchmark and variable.

I am trying to graph the following data in an area chart with line charts superimposed on the area chart. I have a lot of data (and a lot going on) so I'm trying to figure out the best way to show this in excel from a functional standpoing (i can't get this to work in excel!!) to also an asthetic standpoint (dont want it to look terrible or illegible). This is what I'm trying to chart:
1) Weather data (temperature) by region:
So one region, would be: Northwest
I would like the "area" (so a shaded region) to be the min/max of the temperature data for each month.
2) I would like to show the temperature for each year as a line graph on the chart - so you can see if a year falls in or out of the shaded region.
3) I would like to show a company's sales increases across the same months per year as separate line charts. I may choose to just show the biggest outlier year in the end... or to show 2006 (the latest data).
What I am trying to convery with the chart is that the company's sales is or is not tied to weather deviations. I have attached an excel file with the data. I haven't been able to use the area chart or get a two axis chart to work or get it to look even remotely professional.

Code:
ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlAreaStacked
I created a simple stacked area type in vba. Is it possible and how to have this stacked area to get values from combobox and textbox?

Currently I'm working with an amount of data that corresponds with one data point every day in one year. Not every day is measured thus nothing is entered, some days can also be 0. Therefore I've made an if statement in the column next to the raw data column with an if statement returning #N/A if a cell contains nothing or 0.
This gives me normally no problems when I want to make a Line chart, excel just skips the #N/A cells and draws the line to the next data point (that's the whole reason for the if statement). However this is impossible with area charts. I can understand why, but I still want it as nothing or 0 in a cell not necessarily mean that nothing happened.

I'm trying to create an area chart to show the change in the number of staff working in my store over time. Unfortunately, Excel likes to draw diagonal lines. That is if I have the following data:
9:00AM - 1 staff
10:00AM - 2 staff
11:00AM - 1 staff
Excel will draw a diagonal line between each data point, rather than creating a box. This gives the illusion that there are somehow half people working at 9:30 and 10:30. Is there a workaround?

I'm having trouble drawing an area chart that ends sharply at a specifided value rather than drawing a diagonal line down to zero. Let me explain
I watched an Excellsfun youtube tutorial that used the IF statement to chart a subset of normal curve data as the second series in an area chart.
It looks like an easy way to add some interactivity. I enter a single value, and the IF statement checks to see if the data in the first sereis is less than or equal o that number. Once the first series data exceeds the number I entered, the IF statement populates the second series with "", which is to say a blank entery.
Here's my spreadsheet data and the chart it produces:
Normal
ABCDEFGHIJ1Series AHeight AHeight B:5.5210.04070850.0407085d2.87228320.06610770.0661077x5430.09509940.0950994540.12118840.1211884Height A: =NORM.DIST(A2:A11,$F$1,$F$2,FALSE)650.13680530.1368053Height B:=IF(A2

trying to find a way to insert a table into an active chart area.
unlike inserting charts as objects inside of a spreadsheet, i am trying to insert a table of the spreadsheet into the chart window.
the purpose is so that i may have a numerical reference to my data.
usually i post questions to which i have begun work on - but i have had no luck even brainstorming how this would be done!
the ONLY solution i have surmised is to insert a table into a chart area as an Object(picture)
but how would one write a macro for making dynamic range screen shotpicture files?

I have a series of X-Y Data (0-10 in both axis) that I want to overlay on an area chart to show outliers outside of an accepted condition. I have been able to create the area chart and the scatter chart separately but when I try to combine them the axis gets messed up. I tried using a secondary axis but I am not that skilled
I have attached the data and my feeble attempts at creating this chart.

I have plenty of experience with VBA outside of charts so that's where I need assistance. I need to get SeriesCollection(4), the PTAI series, to appear on the area chart second from the bottom instead of on the top.
The order for the non-line series should be, from top to bottom:
SeriesCollection(3) - Non-Mission AC ( Training, T&E, AMarc series)
SeriesCollection(2) - Total Pipeline series
SeriesCollection(4) - PTAI series
SeriesCollection(1) - Available PMAI series
Here's the
Sub MakeSandChart()
Dim ChartSource As Range
Dim ChartName As String
Dim ChartSheet As String
Dim yCount As Integer
Dim PAA_Value As Integer
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
passtype = Mid(ActiveSheet.Name, 5, 1)
Set ws = Worksheets(ActiveSheet.Name)
ChartName = Left(ActiveSheet.Name, 5)
ChartSheet = ChartName & " Chart"
ChartName = "F18" & passtype
Set ChartSource = Union(Range("SummRowDate" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowTAI" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowNM" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowTotPipe" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowPTAI" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowPMAI" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowPlanPAA" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowWorkPAA" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowDrillPAA" & passtype), _
Range("SummRowBaseline" & passtype))
Worksheets(ChartSheet).Activate

I have charts that needs to be placed on specific position and have specific sizes on a chartsheet. I use chartobjects(i).plotarea (top, left, width, height) for that.
Unfortunately when I set these values they still change and get antoher value, there is some scaling going on in Excel and I do not know where that comes from. I have been looking on the internet and finally I found a piece of code which works, but still not good enough, because the legend is also not good positioned.
De data for resizing the charts (ChtNew), the legends and the charttitle I get from other charts (ChtOrig). The legend.legendposition of ChtOrig does not have a value but it still have a top,left,height en width which I use.
I show you my code, the part with the for-next is taken from the internet.
With ChtNew.legend
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top
.Height = ChtOrig.Legend.Height
.Left = ChtOrig.Legend.Left
.Width = ChtOrig.Legend.Width '* 1.1
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top + ChtOrig.ChartTitle.Top
End With

I have an interactive chart displaying stacked area charts for 2006 and 2007
I currently have 2006 in front of 2007, but as the user chooses 1 of 20 units, it will look better to move 2007 in front of 2006

I'm trying to produce step charts like Andy Pope does on his web site using the area chart method. http://www.andypope.info/charts/stepchart.htm. This involves duplicating each of the values in each data series, which is tedious if there are a lot of points. Plus the fact that the area series is offset by 1 from the axis series. Can anyone think of a formula to do this? There are plenty of posts here about deleting duplicates, but I couldn't find much about creating duplicates. I can duplicate row numbers using =CEILING(ROW(),2)/2

I am using an area chart to display the price spread between different types of wheat.
Now the problem I am having is that, at the "end" of the chart, ie. the most recent observation date, the line drops to zero while the value is actually well above zero. How can I avoid this ?
I am attaching a screenshot : Wheat Spread.PNG

I have a worksheet which contains data for 6 different groups. I have a sort macro already that sorts them into groups (group 1, group 2, etc.) What I want to do know is set the Print Area so I can just print each group individually with a button("print group 1", etc.)
The worksheet is set up as follows:
Columns B-H are the data I want to have printed. The number of rows is different for each group. I want to set the Print Area based on Column H. So, if H=1, set the Print Area for Columns B-H and all rows that have H=1. This seems like it should be simple enough, but I haven't quite been able to put the pieces together yet.

I have a code Ive been trying to get to work. It works fine with selecting the print area based off a cell value, it just wont update when ever the value changes.
This is on the Sheet's code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Target Range("A1") Then Exit Sub
Call PrintbyName
End Sub
And this is in a module
Sub PrintbyName()
Dim rng1 As Range, rng2 As Range, rng3 As Range, rngPrint As Range
'Refer to the named ranges
With Worksheets("Permit Page")
Set rng1 = Range("$A$1:$bx$603")
Set rng2 = Range("$A$1:$bx$493")
Set rng3 = Range("$A$1:$bx$493,$a$549:$bx$603")
[code]......
I wasnt sure if I was suppose to fill out where it says "nothing".

I have a worksheet named "TQUOTE" with the print area defined as A1:E:286 resulting in 5 pages printing ,however if there are only 3 pages of data I will be left with 2 blank pages being printed. (along with the header rows which are set to repeat for each page ). I should mention this worksheet is included in a list of sheets to print based on the response to a user form. Would it be possible to have the print area change based on the an empty cell that related to the next page break? eg. If the page break for page 1 ends at row 55, if a cell in row 56 were empty then set the print area to be A1:E55 If the page break for page 2 ends at row 85, if a cell in row 86 were empty then set the print area to be A1:E85 and so on ?? I do not have the skills yet to write this macro , and i bow to thiose

I'm trying to set a variable for a range based on the cells selected. For example, I want variable "myrange" to be set to range("A1:D14") if I click on cell A1 and drag it to D14. So far everything I've tried ends up getting the good old "1004 - Application defined or object defined error".

I'm looking for a way to set the print area based on the value of a cell. I have a worksheet that prints a 12-page document, with data pulled from separate sheets. At the bottom of these twelve pages is an additional 2-page section that I only need in certain instances.
For example, if a cell (let's call it A1) on Sheet1 says "brown," I need the print area set to include these additional pages. If that same cell ('Sheet1'!A1) reads "yellow," however, I don't need to include the 2 pages in the print area.
