I have a line chart that tracks daily inventory and daily distribution. The chart also has a static value of Max inventory and Min inventory levels. Is it possible to shade the area between the Min and Max levels on the chart a different color from the rest of the chart. For example the chart has a white background and I would like to shade the area betwen the min a max a light blue across the width of the chart.
View 4 RepliesI want to add a user-form on a chart, which will have check-boxes that will allow me to select series(lines) that I want see and compare in a chart. Currently my line chart has 24 series (Lines) which makes the chart very difficult to view and looks very busy. How do I add list of check-boxes that will allow me to select one or multiple lines that I want to see at a time?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a creative way to display a pie chart within a data point marker of a line chart.
My database has 3 value columns, Type1, Type2 and the Total (Type1 + Type2)
these are recorded per day (Date, in Column A)
I have a line chart that displays the total by date, but I want to find a way to display the percentage split of a particular day by type.
I was thinking to load the chart image into the Data point marker, but i don't think that is the best way as the data is updated daily and I would have to do it each day for a few line charts.
The other way I was thinking about was to have a generic Pie chat in the Line chart (Maybe in a corner) and the pie would update depending on way date series was selected or Mouseover'd)
the way that I am approaching it at the movement (Not the best way and by far not the coolest way. Is to have a list of all the dates in a column next to the Line chart and using some VBA, what ever date is selected in the column the pie chart displays the corresponding data. But eh challenge is that when there is alot of dates, I am going to be scrolling up and down.
I am using Excel 2010, but I cant not use the slicer's as the other users do not have 2010, they have 2007.
I have created a population pyramid and want to add another chart on the secondary axis which I can do. The part which I seem not to be able to complete is getting the line chart secondary axis to read from the primary y axis. It seems to add a new axis, even when I delete this the line chart does not read correctly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can I add missing values to the axis in a pivot chart line chart? I have a numerical X-axis with values such as 0,1,5,8,14, etc. I have another set of Y values that correspond to the X values. If this was an XY-scatter plot I'd be able to plot X vs. Y and connect the dots for "gaps" in the X values. Since it's a pivot chart I cannot use an XY-scatter plot, I can only use a line chart. The line chart doesn't give me the ability to add the "missing" values, so it gives the impression that my data is more closely packed than it is. The data source is external to my spreadsheet, so I cannot add the values before creating the pivot table/chart.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to overlay a line chart on top of a stacked column chart. The stacked column chart is a chart where the x axis is dates and the y axis is amount. The line chart is a projected amount that I will reach in few years; the x axis is the date while the y axis is an amount. I can get a chart that has a line and stacked columns, but ever time, the dates get messed up. The line has an extremely wide date range while the columns only have about a month of data.

Basically this is for better visual appearance. When I add a 0 to the table, it skews the alignment of the line chart with the corresponding bar chart.
Attached is the sample data worksheet. Chart 1 is XY type chart using Seconds (2nd column of sample sheet as x-axis from 42510 to 42530).

And how do I again change it back to XY chart?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI can create a column chart in excel comparing sales in 06 v's 07 for each month in 07, what I'm aiming to show on the chart is how sales have grown or not over a comparative period. A simple enough graph, I end up with about 24 columns (2 for each month and then a gap between each month).
I now want a line chart to show the performance of an index over the same time period, lets say the FTSE100.
I don't know how to get the line chart under the columns on the same graph, using the same x-axis with a small y-axis to the left. I could propably figure out the y-axis bit if I could only get the line chart below the columns.
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.
I have a do/loop to fill my combo box with values from a sheet (works fine) , but how do I force the first value to display (as a default)?

I have created some charts for my work and one of them is a line chart that spreads across one year with values for each month. Well they want the graph to always show one month ahead of where we are out. So there is actuals in for Sep. but then the line graph drops all the way to 0 for Oct. I don't want to have the graph bottom out when there is a zero. Does anyone know how to fix this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi, as you can see in this chart I am plotting TOTAL company sales against its three merchandise components - men's, women's, and accessories. My issue is that when I had two rows to just show company sales against one of the merchandise categories -- and I Go TO TRENDLINE and show the R-Squared, it is ALWAYS THE SAME= 20%. CLEARLY, something is wrong beacuse (a) its different numbers for each of the three merchandise categories and (b) these three categories make up the total comp so CLEARLY it should be a higher R-squared than 20%. How Can I get it to properly read the R-Square.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a table with 7 rows and 7 columns:
First 6 rows - months i.e. Mar to Aug
7th row - Average no. of Breakdowns
Colums - Mon to Sun
I am trying to create a bar-line chart with the 'Average No. of Breakdowns' to be on the 2nd Y-axis and displayed as a line.
The rest of the data would be on the primary Y-axis and displayed as bars,
But I am unable to get what I want. Instead, the data on the 5th and 6th row is displayed as lines. I even tried formatting these 2 rows to the primary Y-axis but they are still displayed as lines.
On top of these graphs, i draw a line (insert a line shape) corresponding to a certain gradient in the data presented. I do not want this line to be exact (i.e. not point to point) as it is best to be drawn by eye so that the general 'gist' of the data can be found. What i would like, using any method available, is to be able to find the gradient of this line i have just drawn which obviosuly must be done taking into account the scale of the graph. The scales of the graph will not be consistent across all applications.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know how to create a chart that is linked to another worksheet without a problem.
What I'm looking to accomplish is to create a line chart that automatically updates when new data is entered. So if I were to enter data for October 2012 it would automatically update the chart without me having to manually select the data. I tried the OFFSET tutorials and to be totally honest I get lost so maybe can give me a step by step? Also, I only want to have 15 months of data to show on the line chart at one time. So it should show June-11 to Sept-12 to begin with and once data is entered for October (R) it should update the the line chart to show only July-11 to Oct-12.
I messed with it for about 5 hours last night and got nowhere. About 2 hours today and even watched YouTube tutorials. I can almost get the OFFSET but it's a vertical OFFSET. I tried the horizontal tutorial but it still selects vertically.
I've created a graph from data and need to add an average/net impact/trend line to the graph. From what I've read this needs to be an XY scatter, however, several efforts later and I can't seem to get it to work for me.
