Move The Clustered Bar Chart To A Chart Sheet
Introduction
Clustered bar charts are a common way to display data in a visual format. They are especially useful when comparing two or more sets of data over time. However, when you have a lot of data, the clustered bar chart can become cluttered and difficult to read. One solution to this problem is to move the clustered bar chart to a chart sheet. In this article, we will discuss how to do that.
Step 1: Create Your Clustered Bar Chart
The first step is to create your clustered bar chart in Excel. This can be done by selecting the data you want to use and then clicking on the "Insert" tab. From there, select "Bar" and then "Clustered Bar" from the drop-down menu. Your clustered bar chart should now appear on your worksheet.
Step 2: Move Your Chart to a Chart Sheet
The next step is to move your clustered bar chart to a chart sheet. To do this, right-click on your chart and select "Move Chart" from the drop-down menu. In the "Move Chart" dialog box, select "New sheet" and then enter a name for your chart sheet. Click "OK" to create the chart sheet and move your clustered bar chart to it.
Step 3: Customize Your Chart Sheet
Now that your clustered bar chart is on a chart sheet, you can customize the sheet to your liking. You can change the chart title, add labels to the axes, and adjust the font size and style. You can also add a legend to the chart sheet if you want to include more information about your data.
Step 4: Save Your Chart Sheet
Once you have customized your chart sheet, it's time to save it. Click on the "File" tab and select "Save As" from the drop-down menu. In the "Save As" dialog box, select "Excel Chart" from the "Save as type" drop-down menu. Enter a name for your chart sheet and click "Save". Your chart sheet is now saved and ready to use.
