    Excel Radar Chart - Remove Empty node (parameter)

    Greetings!
    I am plotting a radar chart with 6 nodes (based on each of the parameter values). The Excel plot rightly plots the dimensions on 6 different nodes, but also creates a dummy node axis, without any parameter.

    Is there any advise on how to remove this 7th node (with the 6 parameters to plot)?

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not cross-post your question on multiple forums without telling us about your threads on other forums.

    Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

    Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

    Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).

    Re: Excel Radar Chart - Remove Empty node (parameter)

    Hello,

    what is the data layout for the chart data? 6 cells of values will give a radar chart with 6 nodes, not 7. This is how my data and radar chart look

    How does your data layout and chart look? You can attach a sample file for inspection.

    cheers, teylyn

    You can confuse a radar chart by having 2 series of mixed radar styles.

    Hi Andy, that's weird. Did you report that as a bug yet? It should be bugged.

    Chetan, can you please share a sample file for inspection?

    cheers, teylyn

    Couple of years back I mentioned it to Scott R @ MS.
