Default Broken Y Axis in Line Chart



Is it possible to create the broken Y-Axis on a Line Chart? A logarithmic
axis is not appropriate form my data and I do not want to create a secondary
axis (confusing for the reader). I have looked at the methods described by
Jon Peltier, Andy Pope, and Tushar Mehta and (if I understand them
correctly) they work for column charts and scatter plots respectively. I
understand these techniques but my data is categorical (months on X-axis)
and numerical on the Y-axis. A column chart is an option but does not
convey the temporal trends ant I wish to illustrate.



Any and all advice appreciated,
