Default Embedded Chart in Excel Sheet

I have an embedded chart on sheet 1. It looks exactly like what I want--
EXCEPT
--neither source cell values or trend lines are plotted. When I click on the
embedded chart, the values of the column are highlighted, but nothing happens
in the plot area.

1. The data may be plotted, but way off scale.

2. The data may be plotted, but the series are hidden (no line, no marker).

I don't think the data is off scale, but I must look into "hidden lines &
markers". How do I determine if hidden lines & markers exist? Thanks for
your response, it has given me a path to investigate.

Select the chart, then use the dropdown in the Chart toolbar to select a
series or trendline. Objects are hidden by formatting them (use Ctrl-1,
numeral one, to format a selected object) with no line, no marker, no
fill, etc. If the series is in-scale but hidden, you'll still see it
highlighted when it's selected.
