Default Scattered chart combined with columns and time-x-axis in XL2007

Hmmmm. Doing this, Secondary X does not match with primary X.
I'm using time-axis for X-scaling purposes so that I can configure left and
right margin with cell-values.
But I can configure secondary X axis' Min and Max fix to 0 and 100 (e.g.)
and calculate a factor as
Max(X_secondary) / 100 to fit coordinates for scattered chart. But then I
can also use a second chart.

Technology has taken a giant leap... backwards.

You could put the XY series onto the secondary axis, remove the secondary
Y, and hide the secondary X (no ticks or labels).

Hmm, this is not a forward-step that XL2007 did here.
So we have to live here with two transparent charts stacked over each
other.

Thanks, Holger.

Ironically, the XY series can plot anywhere along a text axis in 2007.
The first category is at X=1, the second at X=2, etc. I hadn't noticed
(or at least I hadn't remembered) that the time scale axis didn't work
this way.

Dear Group,

until XL2003 I could create a column chart, configure the x-axis to as
a time-axis (for x-scaling purposes)
and I could place scattered charts (as carrier for text and symbols) at
any (non-integer) x-position.

Using XL2007, scattered charts can only be positioned on
x-integer-values.
So I am forced to put a second transparent scattered-chart over the
column-chart?
Or is there any better way to do this in ONE chart?

Thanks in advance: Holger.
