Can you make half of your y axis log scale?

Hello all-

Strange request... I am making a bar graph.. in a nutshell, the y axis intercept is set to 1 and all other bars are compared to the first control bar, which is set to 1 based on the analysis.

However, based on the analysis, the scale below one must be log scale, while the scale above one is normal.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

The only thing I could think of would be to create a line chart and set up your x data points to represent a log scale for the first part and then change to linear..

Have a look at the attachment, although I just guessed at what the x-axis labels should be, it's not a "proper" log.

I have attached an example.... You will see that everything is compared to the first column. The y axis is fold change. However, anything below 0 is a log change, while everything above is regular.... I need to find a way to make the lower part log scale to indicate the differences...

To be clearer... I just need all y axis values >1 to appear as they are but all y axis values <1 to be log scale.

Since the y axis is n-fold difference.. increasing or decreasing, the values below 1 are underestimated, since .1 is really a 10 fold decrease, not a 1 fold decrease.

So, some way to log scale <1 values on the x axis.
