    Stacked Charts w/ Vertical Separation

    I have read Jon Peltier's tutorial regarding stacked charts with vertical separation but I still have some questions regarding this:

    1)The values of the bars are appearing in percentages, not in the units I specified. My numbers are large, so I set the scale to a maximum of 150 (with 50 being the major spacing) but on the graph, the max appears at 1.5 and all of my stacked columns end exactly at 1.0. This is how I know that the columns are appearing as percentages, and not the actual values. How do I change this?

    2)The tutorial only shows you how to make stacked charts all with the same scales. How can I make stacked charts with different scales (same units)? If it is not possible to make stacked charts in the same spreadsheet like in Peltier's tutorial, how can I achieve the same look?

    Thanks in advance

    I bet you've chosen the 100% stacked column for your chart type. Go to
    your chart and change it to just a stacked column.
