varying y-axis
i have 2 data sets with large discrepencies in values. i want to make a bar graph with the smaller set directly on top of the larger set, but if i do this, you can barely see the smaller set. i know that a log scale would work for this, but that's not what i need. is there a way to split the y-axis on a bar chart like there is for a scatter plot. that way the first bar could go up to, say 100, increments of 10, then there be a break in the y-axis and skip to 100,000. i would also need the increments to then increase after the split, say to 10,000. this seems relatively simple, but i can't seem to figure it out. thanks a lot. -- etraleigh |
