Default Plotting charts

Hello all

Does anyone know if there is a type of graph that allows you to plot by
x-value and y-value. Much like the coordinates on a maps.

The scatter chart allows you to plot by y-value, but the x-axis is by
catergory.

Hi,

There is an xy scatter chart type that will plot x and y as values.

Cheers
Andy

Hi,

The data label will display x or y value. If you want something else the
try using one of these free addins to link cell contents to data labels.

Cheers
