Add Dynamically Vertical Line To Chart Without User Intervention After Initial Setup Of Workbook?

Mar 21, 2014

I am trying to add a vertical line dynamically to a chart. What I mean is I have a chart that will have a line type chart on it and I want to add a vertical line to it based on the output of one cell in that same workbook. I am making this workbook for use by end-users so I can't ask the end-users to make a bunch of modifications to the sheet or or chart. What I do has to just work when they use the workbook.

The line chart has an X axis of time and a Y axis of items sorted. (This is the part of the chart I have done already.) I want to add a vertical line fed from a cell which will have a time fed from a cell on the workbook. For example the line chart goes from 9:00 to 16:00 and the vertical line might be at 13:00. The cell feeding the vertical line is subject to change based on the other inputs on the workbook so that's why I say the vertical line has to be dynamic as the vertical line could be anywhere between 9:00 to 16:00 or it might even be that I can't place the vertical line because the feeding cell is outside the range of 9:00 to 16:00.

I have seen a number of ways to do this but none that are dynamic and automatic and don't require end user to adjust the workbook to make the vertical line at the correct on the time scale.

Read Range Of Data Line By Line Which Is Increasing Dynamically

Aug 20, 2014

I need to read or clear all the line in specific range which will be increasing dynamically. Problem is "Selected File List" table range is not specified. New file chosen with browse will be added to "Selected File List" dynamically. Number of file can't be predicted.

vbaStk.JPG

What I've tried so far is, keep track of the browse button click and add the file path to arraylist. After that, (Row number 9 which is start line + arraylist size) to get the number of line of end of the table. But due to some requirement, I want to read the file from excel file. Something like -Read until found blank line or border bottom or something.

I'm new to VBA and I'm not so sure what I'm doing with vba codes

Placing A Small Vertical Line On The Paper

Dec 9, 2008

I am currently using a sheet of paper and tallying events. By tallying, I mean placing a small vertical line on the paper, then after 4 vertical lines, I place a diagonal line across the four. At the end of the month, I add all these up. I would like to make a spreadsheet to replace the tallying, but am not sure how to do it. Is this possible? I am beginner to intermediate with Excel and use 2003, but can switch to 2007.

Dynamically Chart Series

Sep 18, 2008

I have calculated data (the column and row headings are calculated as well) similar to this for which I need to create an automatically updating chart.

******** language="JavaScript" ************************************************************************>Microsoft Excel - test.xlsm___Running: 12.0 : OS = (F)ile (E)dit (V)iew (I)nsert (O)ptions (T)ools (D)ata (W)indow (H)elp (A)boutA1=

[HtmlMaker 2.42] To see the formula in the cells just click on the cells hyperlink or click the Name box
PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE THIS TABLE IMAGE ON SAME PAGE! OTHEWISE, ERROR OF JavaScript OCCUR.

The chart should update if the data is filtered; so if a user doesn't want to see the 'orange' row they can filter the data accordingly. There is a finite number of rows and columns in the range but sometimes there will be less data. I have tried to convert the data to a table and that works quite well except the legend keys persist: so if there is no data for pillows and stickers the legends still appear and have to be removed manually. Also, there seems to be a bug in Excel 2007 whereby the removal of a chart linked to table data causes a persistent error message to appear.
I know that I need to created a named range for the data series using OFFSET, and I have also read that I need to refresh this formula using VBA but I am now very confused and none of my attempts quite work.

Excel 2010 :: Add Pie Chart Into Data Point Marker On Line Chart

Nov 27, 2011

I 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.

Adding Comparison Line Chart To And Existing Population Pyramid Chart

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.

Show Missing Values In Pivot Chart (line Chart) Axis?

Apr 18, 2013

How 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.

Chart Series - Set Start / End Dynamically

Apr 16, 2014

The formula used to create the marked series line.

Code:
=SERIES(Rolling_window_data!$B$2;Rolling_window_data!$A$3:$A$122;Rolling_window_data!$B$3:$B$122;1)

The statistics in Rolling_window_data.

I need the marked line to be different from/to a point in time (x scale), depending on the backfill date in Rolling_window_data. All the contents are generated programmatically so the backfill date cell with a value will almost always be different. From what I've researched, I should make 2 series that overlap each other (in the current case, the 1st series should end on line 27 and the second should start from line 27 and continue to the end). The start is always line 3 and the end is always line 122.

How do I dynamically set the series start/end so I can make them overlap each other? I'm assuming I should add some kind of 'IF Statement' to the series code but I'm very new to excel formulas.

Code:
=SERIES(Rolling_window_data!$B$2;Rolling_window_data!$A$3:
IF(FOR Each Cell in Range("D3:D122") cell.value #N/A, Cell, "D122");Rolling_window_data!$B$3:$B$122;1)

Vertical Lines - Area Chart

Dec 29, 2008

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?

Overlay Line Chart On Top Of Stacked Column Chart?

Feb 15, 2012

I 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.

Dynamically Change How Values Are Displayed In A Chart

Is it possible to dynamically change how values are displayed in charts?

Chart Loop To Change Axes Dynamically

Oct 11, 2006

I've got an excel worksheet that contains charts 5-14, each with different max axes on primary and secondary scales. Right now the code below works to adjust the axes, however I have pasted this into a script 10 times, once for each chart with different references to the chart number, the max primary axis and max secondary axis. how I could write the following as a loop so that I don't need to have to repeat this routine in my code?

Sub ChartsBillingsShare()
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 5").Activate
With ActiveChart
.HasAxis(xlValue, xlPrimary) = True
.HasAxis(xlValue, xlSecondary) = True
End With
ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue).Select
With ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue)
.MinimumScale = 0
.MaximumScale = Range("Y6").Value
End With.................................

Dynamically Update Chart Source Range

Aug 31, 2007

I'm trying to create a chart and set its source dynamically.

I've tried two methods, the first by setting the XValues of a chart's series collection to a range specified by cells,

ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = range(Cells(9, coloffset + 4), _
Cells(9 + numvsteps, coloffset + 4))

And by using the chart wizard.

Call vchart.Chart.ChartWizard( _
Sheets(resultssheet).range(Cells(9, coloffset + 6), Cells(9 + numvsteps, coloffset + 6)), _
xlLine, , xlColumns, _
Sheets(resultssheet).range(Cells(9, coloffset + 1), Cells(9 + numvsteps, coloffset + 1)), , _
False, "End-End Eff., " & current & "A", "Line Voltage", "Eff. [%]", "test")

Setting the XValues property gives an "Unable to set the XValues property of a series class".

Using the chart wizard, trying to set the category labels parameter of the chart wizard to a range doesn't give an error message, but does leave the category labels section of the chart (when I click and view it) blank.

I've also tried

resultssheet = "Sheet1"
tempstring = "='" & resultssheet & "'!" & "R9C" & (coloffset + 1) & ":R" & (9 + numvsteps) & "C" & (coloffset + 1)
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = tempstring

When I step through the code, tempstring is "='LineReg Results'!R9C1:R19C1", which is correct, but I still get an "unable to set the xvalues property of a series class" error.

Interestingly, if I record a macro of me setting the category labels, and play it back, I also get the error.

Copy Page Setup From One Workbook To Another?

May 18, 2009

Is there a way to copy page setup settings from one workbook to another in VBA?

Example, I have a spreadsheet with 5 tabs with each of them different page setup options.

I have a second spreadsheet with 5 tabs where I need to make the page setup the same for each tab as the saved spreadsheet #1.

Background: This is a workaround for not being able to do copy/paste special values for pivot tables. My workaround is to save an .xlsx as a .mht then reopen and save as .xlsx. The only problem is that I lose page setups through the process.

Compiling Data From Multiple Workbook Into A Line By Line Master Schedule

Mar 30, 2013

I have about 180 workbooks which I need to compile into a Master Schedule.

All the tab 1's are different, these feed into tab 2, which the data has the same formatting throughout. The 2nd tab has the same data for A:F 1 but cells A:2 - F:2 down to row 9 are populated from tab 1, therefore different in each. I am trying to get a Master schedule that lifts the data in the fed cells into a line by line spreadsheet?

Is there a way I can get excel to look at a folder, then every workbook in it, the at the 2nd tab in every workbook, then list the cells as described above? I am not after a consolidation of this data, but a full list?
