    XY scatterplot offset?

    Possibly a silly question, but where are options to change the offset with XY scatterplots?

    If I leave the x-axis set to auto scale min & max, it gives me additional x-values that are not part of the series, and I don't want them there. If I force manual min & max x-axis values it looks horrible because the data range touches the edges.

    Thanks in advance

    You've seen automatic and manual. The remaining option is to control it in VBA based on the data.

    This example show you how to update the scale via code

    You would need to use formula to calculate your own min and max values.

    Thanks, but this a level of complexity I'm not willing to get into right now. I'll use other software for it. Cheers.
