    This was easily explained and clear. You saved my butt and I finally got a complex scatter plot done for different groupings in Software and their relative market TDC ratio. Thank you!

    @marmanlive 2 года назад

    Instead of creating separate tables for each tree, is there a way to select all trees from one table and just show tree names next to each dot on the chart as a labels ? I bet it can be achieved by creating series per tree row from the table, yet I wonder if there is a better way to do that?

  • @miminewbean8518

    1:30 As soon as I did this only 1 x-axis measurement appeared. Whereas yours (did the same exact thing I did) came up with all of your measurements in the graph/plot. The title of the graph is all of the text in the final horizontal line and the x and y values were no where near what mine were.

      In case it still helps anybody: I had the same problem and it turns out it was because I copied the data from elsewhere. Manually entering the data solved this problem for me

      Right-click on the vertical axis. Select Format Axis. Under Axis Options, expand the Labels group and in the Label Position field, select "High"

    How do you combine the cells like where you have "douglas fir"?

    • @vertex42
      @vertex42  5 лет назад +1

      You can select the cells you want to merge and then use the "Merge & Center" command on the Home ribbon.

    Mine xcel is 2013 version and does not have the DESIGN tag as yours. What can I do to plot several graphs on the same chart with different x-axis values?

    • @vertex42
      @vertex42  5 лет назад +1

      Right-click on the chart and choose Select Data. Then you can add other chart series (each "series" is a different graph). An XY scatter plot lets you define a separate set of X and Y values for each series.

    Can you add labels for the dots? e.g "trees name" ?

    • @vertex42
      @vertex42  5 лет назад +2

      Yes. Click on one of the data points until only that data point is selected (two slow clicks), then right-click on the data point and select Add Data Label. Then you can select the data label and edit the text and formatting for that label. There are other methods - similar to creating a timeline chart in Excel.

      The Developer tab must be added via File > Options > Customize Ribbon and checking the Developer box. The Design and Format tabs show up when you select the chart.

      @vertex42  4 года назад +2

      Sometimes if you edit a chart, you'll no longer be able to drag the selector to add a new series. In that case, to add a new series, right-click on the chart and choose "Select Data". Then click on the Edit button to see how the existing series is defined (the references for the name, x values, and y values), then click on the Add button to create a new series.

  • @fleksimir
    @fleksimir 4 года назад +1

    If you just can't get it to work, were your cells set as the type "Text" at some point? If your cells were at some point set as Text, you cannot just change it to Number or General, Excel is too stupid for that. You have to click on each individual cell and press enter for Excel to realise "hey this is a number". Thanks Microsoft.
