LOG SCALE
 

Hello,

I made clustered bar graph with data and error bar and then click log scale
on Y-axis. some bar toward left and some bar to right. However, the direction
of error bar which is in bar toward left go toward right. Can I make error
bar toward left side on left bar of log scale.
Also, all labels go to left side when I change to log scale. it looks ok.
However some of them slightly cover bar graph. How I can control this?

Thanks

LOG SCALE
 

Hi,

The problem is negative values on a log scale. If you try setting the
Minimum Scale value to -100 for example you will get a error message
explaining the problem.

You could, although I'm not sure of the mathematical accuracy of doing so,
use formula to calculate your own Log values. Taking into account the
negative values. You will need to plot a dummy xy series to mimic the axis
labeling.
And I should imagine you will also need to do the same thing with the Error
bars, using a custom value(s) that you calculate.

Cheers
Andy
