Practical Excel skills sharing: Advanced chart production-column chart

In the previous article "Excel Function Learning: Talking about the SUMPRODUCT Function", we learned how to use the SUMPRODUCT function. The following article introduces practical Excel skills and talks about advanced chart production. I hope it will be helpful to everyone!

After reading this tutorial for the first time, I don’t understand what it is. Read this tutorial for the second time, huh? Even after turning off the tutorial, I still can’t do it. After reading this tutorial for the third time, forget it, I'll turn on the computer and follow along. Not many people can make this interesting high-level chart, so hurry up and learn it. After you learn it, you will be the brightest star in your circle of friends. Haha, help me up, I want to continue learning.

Speaking of graphics, everyone doesn’t know what comes to mind. Hehe, the tutorials written by Fenzi are usually charts, so the graphics here are inseparable from the charts (of course I still hope to write something else, haha !). So how exactly does it change the horizon? Well, there may be a few tutorials next, all of which will tell you what kind of sparks graphics and charts can create.

It seems that I have said a lot of nonsense again, let’s take a look at the chart effect!

When you see such a circular percentage, do you think about what it is made of?

Pie chart? NO, radar chart? NO.

That is?

Don’t think that a circle is a pie chart. If you want to know how to make it, look down.

The data here is very simple, it is a completion rate and a target value:

Select the data and insert it into a column chart. You heard it right, it is a column chart. Shape chart, as shown in the figure:

The effect after insertion is not what we want. We need to select the chart and then "switch rows and columns" to make the two data form two series, such as Figure:

Delete the unnecessary elements of the chart "Chart Title", "Chart Legend", "Grid Lines", "Abscissa Axis", select and press the DELETE key can delete.

Select the vertical axis of the chart, right-click "Format Axis" and set the maximum and minimum values ​​of the axis.

#After setting the maximum and minimum values, you can press the DELETE key to delete.

Select the data series and set the data series format, as shown in the figure:

Let’s see the effect at this time:

The protagonist is here, insert a circle (remember, do not select the chart when inserting graphics), hold down the SHIFT key to draw a perfect circle. Then set the graphic format, as shown in the figure:

Select the drawn circle, hold down the CTRL key and drag to copy another one Graphics, and then set the size and outline lines.

Align and combine the two charts (remember, both circles are selected), as shown in the picture:

Copy the combined graphics, Click the chart target series and paste, the effect is:

Select the small circle in the middle of the combined graphics again to set the fill color (for the combined graphics, click twice to select it individually and set it), the effect is:

method, paste the graph into the completion rate series, the effect is:

Um, what is this? It’s all deformed, what should I do?

Select the data series and set the fill format, as shown in the figure:

Why use cascading and scale to 1?

Because our target is 1, then we want this shape to be scaled to 1.

The effect after setting:

If we adjust the size of the chart at this time, the circle will be deformed, what should we do?

Teach you how to add a series to the chart, change the new series to "pie chart", and then set the pie chart to have no fill and no lines.

The pie chart will force the graph to be displayed as a square, so no matter how you zoom it in or out, it will always be a perfect circle!

Okay, let’s send Buddha to the West, let’s talk about how to add it.

Right-click on the chart and "Select Data", click the Add button, and after adding, change the chart type to pie chart, as shown in the figure:

After adding the pie chart, try pulling it out again to see if the graphics are all perfectly round. hey-hey.
