Seeking help to create a bar chart where the bar changes colour when low, med or high
Hey all, I'm using Excel on Mac and am seeking to replicate a file I've been given. It has bar charts that are red when in the low category, green when med and blue when high. The bar just changes colour. How could I make this happen please? Thanks so much for assisting:)
down-to-earth This requires a few extra steps by which you dynamically categorise each value in the groups for Low, Med or High. Then you create a stacked bar chart of the three series and format each series to the desired colour. See attached for an example chart.
