Mr. Bradburn, may the rains fall soft upon your fields. May you bask in the sun and never get a burn; may your parents be liberal in their affection; may your children grow up to recognize the beautiful man that you are. Go forth this day with the knowledge that lives, or at the very least occasional Thursday evenings, are changed. God bless you. If you are not a religious man; you rock. You also rock if you're a religious man, to be clear. You get what I mean.
Thank you so much! This was by far the most simple tutorial I have seen regarding error bars, and it makes much more sense! I need these in my graph for my IB Biology Extended Essay, so this video saved my life!
What a pleasure to encounter such a well organized and explained video! Followed your steps, et voila, the graph I need with error bars, thank you. In return, I offer this quote, from a distinguished colleague: "If I see a graph without error bars, I assume they are the width of the page." :)
For excel 2020, 1. Create a bar graph 2. Add Error Bars - Standard Deviation (don't look for more option, its not there) 3. Double click on the error bar - 'format error bars' will pop up from the right hand side 4. See the error amount, it will most likely be on standard deviation - change it custom 5. Click 'Specify Value' 6. Fill the value with your error bars - click OK AND YOU ARE GOOD TO GO :) GOODLUCK, TAKE DEEP BREATH AND CARE ON. REST IF YOU NEED TO!
This saved my day! And I hate this stupid change from Microsoft: I don't understand why these f..king folks would keep changing it...It's meaningless and gives users a lot of trouble!
Hi, if you have error numbers of data from a machine you used to analyse chemicals, can you use that error number in the excel error bar instead, or is the error bar only used for standard deviations that is calculated in excel? The machine I use calculated parts per million of a chemical, with an error number saying it could be this much more or less of parts per million. I hope that makes sense.
Thanks for this tutorial. With my daughter we are looking a graph with error bars. Finally we find it in your helpful tutorial with "Custom" error bars.
Dude, this is awesome. So straightforward. I'm a heavy procrastinator; you're here in my moment of panic and I could follow everything you said easily.
This video is just perfect. Had been struggling for days trying to set the right deviation values on my graph. You Mr. simply saved my a$$. Infinite thanks!
I am advised to add error bars to my graph in research article. The video really helped me to make these using excel. May i know that once we add these bars to graph then do we need to make changes in the discussion part as well ?? Also do we need to mention that error bars are based on STDEV or STDEV. P or STDEV. S
Do u have an idea how format errorbar difference for X and Y lines in VBA? With chrt.SeriesCollection (numb_series) .ErrorBars .EndStyle xlNoCap .Format.Line.Visible msoTrue .Format.Line. Weight 15 .Format.Line. ForeColor.RGB RGB (255, 100, 0) .Format.Line. Transparency 0 End With I don't understand how made lines for X and Y different color, weight.
You've just saved my life from the agony of endless research on how to custom error bars on Excel, I'll never be able to thank you enough ! Have a nice day (:
I wish that worked bro my excel is so fucked it has like 1/3 of these options, idk what braindead programmist managed to fuck up this programme in 2 years but they did a fantastic job
Excellent, you included a step many have missed in copying and repeating the positive and negative error values into the custom option. Thanks for this.....
My issue is that I don't have that plus sign at the top right corner of my graph so it doesnt allow me to customize my error bars. I calculated my standard error and everything but I cant implement the values into my graph.
Hey Doc. B, what is the deal with line graphs in excel-- where when you try to add an error bar it makes a cross and not just a vertical line for the error bars?
I figured it out, I only had the browser version of office installed, so once I used my microsoft account to install the desktop applications I had the full versions.
It helps to generate the bars but questions remain. why are same values entered in positive and negative error boxes? where is it accounting for the specificity of the data series of each bar? how can it be done without using custom option?
Thanks for this!! I have a question - I created a bar graph representing the fold change of my gene of interest (treatment group fold change divided by control group fold change). I have 2 standard deviations - one for the treatment group and control group. Should I divide the treatment SD / control SD as well for my error bars? Or should I add the two SDs together? Data: Treatment fold change average = 5.9 SD of fold changes (3 samples) = 3.14 Control fold change average = 1.01 SD of fold changes (3 samples) = 0.23 Treated/control fold change = 5.83 Error bars = ??
Excellent, you included a step many have missed in copying and repeating the positive and negative error values into the custom option. Thanks for this.....
Hi Ida, 1. Right-click on the graph and go to Select Data 2. Then click on Edit on the right side (Axis Labels) 3. Add in the labels; separate each entry with a comma

I can't find the chart element option on my excel sheet.
You just gained a subscriber❤. Thank you for your service Sir.
I follow till last step... Then my error bar not display at all...
Hey, really nice video! Your flow is excellent
Do u have an idea how format errorbar difference for X and Y lines in VBA?
With chrt.SeriesCollection (numb_series) .ErrorBars
.EndStyle xlNoCap
.Format.Line.Visible msoTrue
.Format.Line. Weight 15
.Format.Line. ForeColor.RGB RGB (255, 100, 0)
.Format.Line. Transparency 0
End With
I don't understand how made lines for X and Y different color, weight.
This is exactly what I needed! Thank you!
Ah my data isnt plotted in excel. What formula do I need to just enter the numerical values manually (at 3:20). Thanks!
You've just saved my life from the agony of endless research on how to custom error bars on Excel, I'll never be able to thank you enough ! Have a nice day (:
Great explanation but Excel is very cumbersome when it comes to entering error bars. Unbelievable really that in 2024 it's still so bad.
Thank you man, somehow Microsoft still has an outdated version out.. pathethic company
Honestly couldn’t thank you enough for this!
Very welcome
thank you so much!! It is a great video. It helped a lot
I wish that worked bro my excel is so fucked it has like 1/3 of these options, idk what braindead programmist managed to fuck up this programme in 2 years but they did a fantastic job
What if your excel doesn't have an option for error bars?
All excels have error bar option
Not all bru@@sujhihope
@@sujhihope depends on windows version change the location of error bars
What if in each point i have more than one bar ?
Excellent, you included a step many have missed in copying and repeating the positive and negative error values into the custom option.
Thanks for this.....
Why nobody tells how to put data. Label ro error bar, because nobody knows how to do it???? Please tell this
gay
This doesn't explain how to use different error bars for each bar in the graph.
Thanks for the no bs vid man!
When i click on my plus icon near the graphic, there's no error bar option. Also i can't click on error bars on design bar. Someone help pleasee
Hi, thanks for the wonderful video ! I can’t find the error bar option when I press plus button. Any suggestions or remedies?
This Tutorial was really helpful in creating cluster graph for my conference paper. Thank You from a Ph.D. Scholar.
My issue is that I don't have that plus sign at the top right corner of my graph so it doesnt allow me to customize my error bars. I calculated my standard error and everything but I cant implement the values into my graph.
nevermind i just had to download the excel app! You can't do what I was trying to do on chrome for Macbooks apparently.

Thanks fam
I keep coming back to this video every few months cos I keep forgetting how to do standard deviation lol. pretty helpful tho so thanks
Excel 365 through Office Home doesn't have the "Add Chart Element" option, I'm losing my mind over here
I figured it out, I only had the browser version of office installed, so once I used my microsoft account to install the desktop applications I had the full versions.
The browser versions of the apps are kind of dogshit so
Ahhhh! Thanks for letting me know Martian! I never knew that
@@xThemFatalexthank you😭😭 I was also Losing my mind!!

how can it be done without using custom option?
Kinda sucks it's not that easy on excel online...
THANK YOU SO MUCH i was getting so annoyed lmao
Thank you very much, this is very helpful and interesting
Thank you so much - that was very clear and concise.
Thanks Karl
Amazing thank you!!
what about the box and whisker plot? error bars does not appear in the "add chart element".
none exist on my excel (mac m1 microsoft excel)
Its realy simple and helpful
Does this not double the standard deviation?
thank you,excellent video
Absolute legend. The website tutorials don't explain it as clear as you so thanks mate!!
No problem 👍
thank you so much!!! you saved my bachelor's thesis
