Default How do you make a chart with right angles only?

I hope you saw Lori Miller's response.

You can also use error bars to make step charts w/o duplicating the data
set. See

I have a set of data with times and a bunch of 0's and 1's. For example, at
1:30 p.m., I have a 0....2:00 p.m., I have a 1...2:30 p.m. I have a 0, etc.

I have my 0's and 1's set up on the vertical axis and the times along the
horizontal axis.

I want my chart to show horizontal and vertical lines ONLY. IE: I want a
point at "0" at 1:30 p.m., then I want a horizontal line over to 2:00 p.m.,
and then I want a line going straight up to "1", and then I want a horizontal
line over to 2:30 p.m., and then I want a vertical line straight down to "0",
etc.

Currently, I am getting diagonal lines connecting the points.

Is what I am trying to achieve possible, and if so, how?

Thank you!
