Default Animated charts

Hello, I want to create a chart, which has a slider, and when the slider is
constantly clicked the area under a curve from a chart starts progressively
being coloured (filled) until it reaches the end of the curve and the end of
the slider. How can create these types of charts.

regards

The example near the bottom of this page:

http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/P...cle.asp?ID=246

shows how to use a slider to control which data is charted. Ignore that my
example uses dates, and just set it up for whatever units your X-axis uses.

You need to use an area chart series. It gets complicated to get the
vertical edge at the last selected point. However, I just remembered another
page on my web site:

Hello,

Can you clarify the procedure to link the scroller with the chart. The first
link seems rather unclear.

regards

There are named ranges in the worksheet which change based on values in
cells (such as start date and end date). The chart uses these named ranges
as the X and Y data. The scroll bars are linked to the cells whose values
control the endpoints of the defined ranges.
