Plot order of lines and points in XY scatterplots
In an Excel XY scatterplot I have plotted several data series. Some of the data series are displayed as markers only with no line connecting them, others I turn off the marker and show only the connecting line. The lines plot behind the markers. I would like the lines to plot in front of the markers. Changing the Series Order in the Format Data Series dialog box seems to have no effect on this. How do I plot the line of one data series in front of the markers of another data series? Thanks! -- Elizabeth ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Elizabeth's Profile: http://www.highdots.com/forums/m1830 View this thread: http://www.highdots.com/forums/t3244185

Plot order of lines and points in XY scatterplots
Hi,
To make the lines appear infront of the data markers move the data series to the secondary axis. Double click the series and on the Axis tab choose Secondary axis.
