Chart Increments & Reduce Crowding
I have a chart that starts incrementing at 5,000. Is there a way to truncate say between 0 - 25,000 (and perhaps show it as a broken bar graph, like other graphing programs can do)? If not, is there at least a way to make the increments larger? Also, I am putting the value labels on the top of each bar. They are extremely crowded and overlap each other, even when I make the font tiny. Any suggestions? Thanks! -- thigley986 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ thigley986's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31967 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=549944 |

Chart Increments & Reduce Crowding
Hi,
Broken axes is not a built-in feature but here are some examples of how to produce the effect. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/BrokenYAxis.html http://tushar-mehta.com/excel/newsgr...tutorial/index... http://www.andypope.info/charts/brokencolumn.htm Does turning the labels thru 90 degrees help?
