I need to show in one single bar chart the number of elements of each column and also its percentage regarding the total.
With a Line and stacked columns chart, I reach this:
However, the tooltip option, on the line, shows me only one value, and I need to get both of them. I mean, not only that 32 but also the percentage corresponding to that value.
Is there a way to get this? maybe another chart?
OK. I understand the question now. Unfortunately, this isn't currently possible.
From Microsoft Community Support,
This is an expected behavior. The tooltips only show when you hover over a column data point in combo chart.
This has been submitted as an idea for Microsoft to address. Please vote and/or comment here:

I have my line chart showing all the data properly, including some annotated values which are meant to act as the label in the last data point for the lines. I wanted to do it this way so that I don't have to show literally every data label for every data point.
I have everything working correctly, but I noticed I am unable to remove the annotated legend item without removing the series. By removing the series, I lose the label. Below is my chart.
As you can see, the last data points are working as labels (1092 for example). The problem is you can also see each annotated item in the legend (the colored dashes with no text next to them). How can I only show the legend items for Gained (green), Lost (red), Net (gained - lost) (yellow), and Total (blue), without the other dashes? Is this doable?
I am also open to seeing if there is another way to have only the last data point have a data label in Google Sheets. I was just working off of this tutorial.
Below is a screenshot of some of my data rows in an accompanying sheet.
as long as the annotation column is specified as 'Label' for the primary column you shouldn't be seeing the former in legend
I am trying to check if it is possible to add lines to a chart that will show differences of data. The data that I have contains negative numbers and negative percentages and I wanted to add a line that will show the percentage ; previous month minus running month volume.
Here is a screenshot of the table and chart that I currently have:
I've tried experimenting with different charts, and arrangements of data, but it yielded no successful results. I've tried searching all through many forums and have not found anyone who has a similar question as I do. I wanted the chart to show the following:
What I want for the chart to look like:
I am trying to illustrate the twist in a sail using a chart, showing the effect of various twist amounts.
However, try as I might, I cannot swap the x and y axis! The cells B3:B8 are the height going up the sail, where the measurements were taken, and should be the y-axis.
The columns C:V are series, which are different sets of measurements taken at the various heights up the sail, with the degree of twist as the series' values. This is what I have:
I've also tried to create the chart from Transpose()d data (swapped rows <-> cols) but ended up with the same chart! The "Height" is supposed to be the Y-axis, and the values ("Degrees") the X-axis.
I must be missing something obvious, but Google is not my friend today. I have created a sample Spreadsheet here if anyone can help. MTIA.
Currently it is not possible to define the Y-Axis to a specific range for Smooth Line Chart, in fact, the only way this can be defined is by using Bar Chart.
As a workaround, you can use Bar Chart to define the Y-Axis like this:
Please note that it only looks best when displaying one or two series, the bars would look squished when more series are added.
As for the original intention of defining Y-axis for Line Charts, or a completely new type of chart, you can file a feature idea request here:

So I have 3 values which are, Percent, Target, and Overtime.
I want to show on the chart the percent with overtime as one stacked column chart, but for the target, I want to make it show as one line as it will be like a fixed value.
I have tried a lot but it didn't work for me at all. Does anybody have any idea how to get this working, please?
Here is the sheet for the chart: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pSyWYMzDFGDNkDTfv1LMurcsvrN6bx3GjxVbmqFijk8/edit#gid=0
Is this were you looking for?
Chart editor: in Customize tab on Series setting you can change each one of [Percent,Target,Overtime] specifically to be type [line, column, or more] to make combo chart
I hope it'll help you
I have a simple column chart where the yAxis series data contains numeric strings in the millions and tens of millions. The chart therefore displays the graph numbers like this: "12.5M"(on the side of the grid) and in the points tooltip it is being displayed with a decimal point at the end. How do I make the data be shown in the thousands with commas? Will the chart be adjusted automatically to display more grid lines and raise the columns higher? Thanks a lot in advance.
I would have added an image, however it seems that that requires more reputation points. Sorry. Here's a link to it Screenshot
1) you can change the formatting of the axis labels by setting your own format with the formatter function
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.labels.formatter
2) you can change the number of ticks by setting a tickInterval or tickPixel interval setting
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.tickInterval
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.tickPixelInterval
3) You can change how much extra space is added at the top/how many ticks there are, in part, by setting the maxPadding setting to 0
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.maxPadding
When you have a small chart like the one you posted, Highcharts will often have trouble adapting its normal tick pattern, and you will often end up with just a min and max tick by default.
It's pretty easy to work these setting to get what you need though.
