In a stacked chart, the second data series is essential added to the first.
Suppose I have
Day East West
Mon 10 12
The East point will be plotted at 10 units above the x-axis and the West
will be 22 units (10+12) - it is plotted 12 above the East point.
If you want it plotted at 12 above the axis do NOT use stacked

When I make a stacked line chart with two series, each point in the 2nd
series appears to have a value that's twice of its' actual value.
I attribute this to the separation of the two series.

Is there any way to control this?

thanks,
Harry
