I created a vertical column chart with 10 columns of varying heights of data.
On my spreadsheet I have a cell containing the average of the data. I need
to add an additional vertical column showing this average and make it stand
out from the other columns somehow (ex: color and/or height of column.) Is
there a way to do this?

Hi,

Maybe you could have the average column as the 11th column. Extend the
existing data series but don't give it a value. Create another series
with data for only the 11th item. You can then format the second series
so make the average stand out.

Or maybe you would be better off with a average line?
