My ugly chart

Post by jsira2003@yahoo.com »

I have a line chart with 2 lines on it. The values are high on one line and values are low on the other line. Line 1 a range of 0 -6000. Line 2 a range of .37 - 5.

I tried logarithmic scaling and I got it to work but I didn't like how the chart reads. The y-axis range isn't good even though the chart looked respectable. I tried to use ScalebreaksStyle but I could not get the line to break. I am plotting 40 points for each line.

There really isn't a break in the data. My issue is that one lines goes top to bottom of the chart. The other line is practically sitting on the X-axis. Do you have any idea using powershell commands how I may improve my charts readability?

thanks,
John

I recommend looking at the X axis and Y axis settings. There you can specify a minimum and max value for the chart's X and Y axis, which you can modify via ChartArea->Axes in the designer:
