Default plotting line charts with formula based 'gaps'

Hi,

The use of NA() only removes the data markers it will not cause a break
in the line. The line will be interpolated between any data points that
have a numeric value.

You can see the variations here.

Cheers

The NA() part of the formulas cause the chart engine to ignore the cell and
joint adjacent points.
If you rewrite the formulas in the form =IF(AND(A12,A16),A1,"") you will
get gaps when the cell displays a blank
best wishes

That still won't provide a gap...
