Dual-axis With Columns?
I have two data series that I wish to plot. One set
ranges from 1 to 6. The second set ranges from 40 to 75. Using a single axis, obviously the 1 to 6 data are barely visible. I want to keep both data sets plotted as columns but I want to create dual axes. One axis from 0 to 10 would correspond to the values of 1 to 6. The second axis from 0 to 100 would capture the data in the second set. When I try to do this, I can create a mix of columns and lines or columns and points but I can't keep both data sets as columns. Someone who was trying to help me said they got two axes with the data in columns but that it stacked the columns. I can't even imagine that one but thought I'd throw in the info in case it helps. How do I graph two data sets of differing ranges, keep both sets as columns and associate one set of columns with one y axis and the second set of columns with an alternate y axis? |
