    Conditional highlighting on my XY scatterplot

    Hi guys,

    I'm doing a scatter plot with two variables on both axis. What code would I need in order to highlight my graph? For example, if the value for my X axis goes above 5, I would like to highlight it red or if the Y value goes below 0 i would also like to highlight it red.

    My plot is a live automatically updating chart so how could i possibly go about doing this?

    Thanks,
    Russ

    Hi,

    I think the easiest way is to create two data sets from your one, and plot them separately on the same chart. Please see the attachment.

    1) there is no attachement, but I think idea is simple enough.

    2) probably it will be necessary to use NA function for not_in_this_sereies_data

    lets assume your Ys are in B column, so the red series Y's formula would go:
