restricting the drop lines to only a single series
I have mutiple-series charts, but would like restric the drop lines only to only one (ususlly the first) plotted data series. However, the drop line option seems to apply to ALL data series and creates an unreadable mess. Is there a way to see only what I want, i.e. the drop lines for a selected series only? z.entropic

While the 'Drop Lines' check box does, indeed, seem to affect all the series, you can get the same visual effect for a single series by using custom error bars: 1. Double-click the series to bring up the Format Series dialog 2. Select the 'Y Error Bars' tab 3. Click in the 'Custom -' box 4. Select the original Y data range for that series. You should now have lines extending from each data point down to the axis.

line color
I have an XY chart using dates for the X. The Y axis is made up from a column of equations. When I create the chart, the lines that connect the data points don't show up. I have been into the plot format and tried making the lines come up in different colors, but nothing seems to work. However, when I make a column that is equal to just the value of the other cells and use this new column to graph the chart, the lines show up, but the dates change to numbers between 0 and 12 on the chart. How do I make the lines show up without changing the any of the data? Can you give an exa...

How do i move data series into other columns on column charts
When i am creating a Column Chart, on the "Series", there is an option to add a series of data. However when i do this they automatically are placed into the first section along the x-axis and there is no way to change this or to move them to other parts of the x-axis. I have 9 values along the X-axis and they each need to have additional data series added to them, but i can only add them in the first value's section of chart. You have 9 categories, and you need a way to plot nothing in the earlier categories if the data should only be plotted on the later categories. You...

How do i move data series into other columns on column charts
When i am creating a Column Chart, on the "Series", there is an option to add a series of data. However when i do this they automatically are placed into the first section along the x-axis and there is no way to change this or to move them to other parts of the x-axis. I have 9 values along the X-axis and they each need to have additional data series added to them, but i can only add them in the first value's section of chart. You have 9 categories, and you need a way to plot nothing in the earlier categories if the data should only be plotted on the later categories. You...

If the entered number is 1 to 3, I need to multiply by .25 If the entered number is 4 to 6, I need to multiply by .5 If the entered number is 7 to 9, I need to multiply by .75 If the entered number is 10 to 12, I need to multiply by 1 and so forth. so if I enter 5 in A6, it will multiply 5 by .5 and put the result in A7 Any suggestions? =A1*(1+INT((A1-1)/3))/4 "DRB" wrote: > I need to change what I multiple by based on the entered number. > > If the entered number is 1 to 3, I need to multiply by .25 &...
window fly in arbitrary direct lines
I have one window whom I want to fly in arbitrary direct lines across the screen (its not a jpeg as in screen saver case but a window). Is there some way (or a sample) how to do that smoothly? Thanks Vinter Well, do you mean "across the screen" or "across the client area of its parent"? There are a couple different issues depending on the answer. The simple answer is to have in your mainframe code something like the following that will move it right-to-left LRESULT CMainFrame::OnFly(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { POINTS start = (POINTS)wParam; POIN...
line series order Excel 2007
I have charts with over 5 series. I mostly reorder them by selecting the series and update the ordernumber in the formula of the series displayed in the formula bar, but ... the selected series is very often NOT showed in the formula bar , why is that? If you have actually selected a series, its formula will appear in the formula bar. If you've clicked on something else, like a data label, there will be no series formula. In the Name box (Excel 2003 & earlier) or in the top left of the two rightmost chart tools tabs, the name of the selected chart element will be displayed, so y...
