graph - Plotting time on X axis in excel -
i have done 24 hour measurement , results obtain contains around 1400 entries. want plot results in such way
- that x axis represent time , y axis corresponding value.
- my x axis should divided 24 sections each representing 1 hour.
- my exact start time 14:00 , end time next day 14:00.
for more clarification adding simple version of data here below
and resulting plot getting this.
i forward answers. thank you.
if time values go across midnight, need add date part time value, can plotted correctly before , after midnight. @ least, time values first day should have 0 before decimal, e.g. 0.875 9 pm, , values after midnight should have 1 before decimal, e.g. 1.125 1 am, falls on next day , not same day 9pm value.
then plot xy scatter chart.
work out excel's internal number (date/time value showing in general format) desired x axis minimum, maximum , major/minor increments , format x axis accordingly. set number format hh:mm
edit: example: want minimum x axis value 24-dec-2015 11 pm. write cell date/time. format cell general. use number see in format dialog x axis minimum.
if want major unit 1 hour, write time value 1:00 cell , format general. use number in dialog major.
format x axis labels show time values, not dates.
