Aligning 2nd Y-axis with 'zero'

How do I make sure that the right Y-axis is zero where the left one is zero? Right now Y-Axis (Line) is set to 'automatic', but that seems to just set the middle where the average is.

I guess this has been fixed?  It took me a bit to find it, but in the Y axis formatting options, there's a switch for "Align Zeros".

Hi @procyon82

 

Try giving same range of values for Y axis .

Lets say your Y-axis on left ranges from -10 to 5,000.  Right Y-axis ranges from -1,500 to 10,000

 

Try defining axis range from -1,500 to 10,000 for both.

@procyon82 you won't be able to perfectly align them but you can get the Secondary a bit closer to the line

 

Adjust the Primary Y-Axis value... (in you case I would first try the Primary to start at -300!)

 

This should raise the Secondary a bit - let me know!

I've reported this to MS a while ago. Hopefully they'll fix it!
