Charts
8 TopicsError bars do not work with custom values - multiple series chart
I have a bar which has multiple series. Think of it as a number charts combined together. I created a table which has the 8 series to be plotted. For each series has a std deviation for each value. Every value is an average of a sample population and as such has a std deviation which I want to plot using error bar options of Excel. The bug i'm facing is that thee first series takes (plots) the custom error values while all other series show nothing. I tried the view/paint options of the error bars but that did not help. I'm convinced the problem is either a bug or some issue with data "reading" . I have attached the excel. The first tab "results Graph 03" has the bars I'm talking about. The first graph is column chart labeled "Sorptivity summary of 3 months specimens grouped by mixture design".In that graph there are the 8 series plotted in it. Labeled in the table columns as A,B,C,D with post-fix H and F each. For each series i added in Column O a bunch of value which are the standard deviations representing the errors. I do not need or want to use the std deviation or other features provided by MSFT error bar options. I want to use those custom values as both the plus and the minus ones. Steps i use 1> Add chart elements > Error options 2> I choose the series 3> for the series i choose "Custom" as the error amount and specifiy the + and -ve as the std deviation in column O. Nothing happens except for first series A-HSolved22KViews0likes5CommentsError in Excel : All the charts are removed

I have created a doughnut chart with multiple series (represented by multiple rings - see charts below). Each ring is divided into 6, the colour of which corresponds to one of three options (yes, maybe and no). I therefore want the colour of the chart to represent this clearly (green, yellow and red), making each ring comparable - i.e. so that the entire chart is made up of only three colours. When I format the legend entry to edit the colours, it only applies the changes to the inner ring/the first series. I am able to manually edit the colour of every other ring segment, however with a lot more data to add this will take a very long time and mean that I am no able to easily edit it should I wish to change the colour again. I imagine there is a way to do this in one simple step, however am unable to find it. Does this make sense? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if I need to make this clearer/explin further. Thanks! Chart 1 - the automatically generated chart where only the colours of the inner ring have changed as I have edited them. Chart 2 - I have manually edited this chart to show how I want the chart to look - i.e. I want any colours that I change to apply to all series4.5KViews0likes0CommentsSelf Updating Graph
I have a large set of data that has daily data that I update weekly. I need to create a graph that automatically updates to show a line graph with the three most recent weeks trended as separate series. Example if it were week 44 I would need to it show week 42,43,44. Then week 45 I would need to show week 43,44,45 and so on. Please Help!1.9KViews0likes1CommentExcel 16.11 chart dimensions are not maintained on a copy and paste (PPT or Google Slides)
The latest upgrade of Excel for Mac (16.11) is not saving chart dimensions when I export to Google Slides, or PPT. The chart is much bigger in the destination application. When I make a chart in Excel and specify the dimensions of the chart in excel, the chart dimensions are not recognized when copy and pasting the chart to Google Slides or PPT. The destination version of the chart is much bigger. Chart sizes were maintained in 15.13. Any advice? Thanks966Views0likes0Comments
