Default Re: How to draw an line chart starting at column 1


Hello Andy,

if I uncheck "Value (Y) axis crosses between categories", then I get the
following
line chart:

| +
| +
| +
+
|________
| | | |
1 2 3 4

But I want the line chart to start at "2".

Hi,

Then as Bernard pointed out you need to use the XY scatter chart and
then Set the scales Min value to 2.

Cheers
