    replace axis numeric values with names

    I am trying to make a chart that shows the stage of items.

    The stages are actually textual such as :
    • Initial (0%)
    • Created(25%)
    • Inspected(50%)
    • Corrected975%)
    • Completed (100%).

    I have made a cylinder chart with this by attributing fictive percentages to the categories but i want to show the stage names in the Y axis, not the percentage values which aren't meaningful. How do i do this?

    If you ditch the cylinder style chart and use columns instead then you can add a dummy series plotted as xy-scatter. The series can then be used to fake the labeling of the y axis by using linked data labels.

    Otherwise textboxes.
