On which version of Excel are you working?

Hui,
Back in 2019 you demonstrated the solution to a charting problem I had been attempting for many years. "pct_circle_chart". Back in 2009 I was going to bore and stroke the engine in my modified Jeep Cherokee and wanted to build it in Excel before doing so physically. Many years ago...
I hear you. I rarely do not use ordinary charts too.
It somehow surprises me you say PowerPivot is unknown territory. I reckon, since you are a master in structured references, you should rapidly feel much comfort with it and DAX. But it is an investment: it takes time to learn and practice...

I spend ages agonising over what was the best approach to the data analysis. The options I considered were
1. Stay within my comfort zone and base the entire analysis on dynamic array formulas
2. To use PQ for the initial filtering and transforming and then use formulas to create...

Hello,
I am not sure that dynamic range in charts is going to solve this problem or not?
I have 3 rows of data and say 10 columns wide that I need to chart 2 of them on.
Row 1 has data
Row 2 is blank (based on other Excel conditions)
Row 12 (or some other row number) has the data that I...
The dates are only hidden because you haven't listed them. If you want to keep adding to them, I suggest checking out Jon's article on dynamiccharting to help you get started:
