Area Charts in 2007 - how to bring data set to front?
I have an area chart where one set of data is larger than another and hiding
the smaller set. How can I bring the smaller data set to the front so it is visible also? Thx Dave |

Hi Dave,
To bring the smaller data set to the front in an area chart in Excel 2007, you can follow these steps:
Your smaller data set should now be visible in front of the larger one in the area chart. |

Hi,
You can change the plot order of the series via the Select Data dialog. Chart Tools Design Data Select Data. Select the series and use the up/down buttons to swap plot order.

Dave one way to do this is to change the transparency levels of your data.
Take a look at:- http://www.pierrefondes.com/ Item number 73 (an Area Chart). Look at the Method tab and pay particular attention to my points number (in Column A) 10, 11 and 12. I think this will give you what you want. If you agree please hit Yes. Thanks. "dave n" wrote: I have an area chart where one set of data is larger than another and hiding the smaller set.
