    Question Please help me add a secondary ordinate axis to scatter chart

    Hiya people! I had a thought that it would be nice if I could add an ordinate axis with temperature to some concentration against time charts. Using a popular search engine, I found some workarounds (which I did not all totally understand) using a line from a set of data made to look like an axis using a scaling factor, and placing two charts over each other to look like one.

    Furthermore, I found a fairly straightforward way of adding a third axis to a line or bar chart using the combo chart. However, that does not seem to be a good fit with my data (temperature, time and concentration).

    Can any of you point me to something that I have missed?

    you probably can just add the second series, in it's properties select displaying on secondary axis, and finally make sure all axes you need are visible (by default excel do show only secondary vertical (but not horizontal) axis in: Chart Design -> Add chart element

    If this hint is not enough, see next hint in a yellow banner near the top of the page.
    Best Regards,

    Kaper
