    How to merge four line graphs with each two drawn in different scales

    I tried to to merge two different line graphs drawn with different scales (X-axis scale) to see the point of contact to each other but I couldn't make it. Can you guys help me to figure out this problem? I have attached excel sheet with two sheets in the same Excel file and also generated the line graph in each sheet. I am getting trouble that how I can merge these two graphs in the same graph. Please guys help me to fix this problem. Thanks

    Hi,

    I see two options:
    1) just place the graphs on top of each.
    Make graph that is on top (with No fill) transparent.
    And set the x-axis scale of both graphs exactly the same.
    2) Place the data of both sheets in one table.
    You could lookup the development data by the date in the in the temperature table.
    Then extend your graph with the development data.
    Bas

    Any reputation is appreciated.

    Hi,

    You had multiple problems here, including:
    (1) Using the wrong chart type. You want a scatter plot, the first option will do
    (2) Use the x values provided on the left in this new type of chart
    (3) Simply copy and paste the values from sheet 2 into the chart
    (4) right click the two additional values and set them on a secondary access so that they display better.

    I've attached the file with the appropriate chart made.

    Dear All, Thanks for your great help. I really appreciate it. So, we can't merge two line graphs? It seemed good merging line graph with box plot but still for better precision, can I merge two line graphs of different scale values? Again thanks to etheriault, bartelba and FlameRetired.
