    Display Mean and Confidence Intervals on Bell Curve

    Hello all,

    I've managed to figure out how to normalize my data and create several bell curves. However, these charts do not display the mean, std deviation, or confidence intervals. Does anyone know of a way to add these into my charts?

    Thanks!

    Just add a series for each:

    A
    B
    1
    x
    y
    2
    mean-sd
    0
    3
    mean-sd max y
    4
    5
    mean
    0
    6
    mean max y
    7
    8
    mean+sd
    0
    9
    mean+sd max y

    I don't see that you even attempted to add the series.
