Force second y axis

Is there a way for force a second y-axis?  I create graphs with combo lines and bars.  Bars on the primary y-axis and are typically hudreds of thousands of dollars, while I would like to have my line...

teylynBenjamin There are only certain visuals it shows up for. The two are the "line and stacked column chart" and "line and clustered column chart" in both these visuals if you click on the y-axis under Format (Paintbrush) and scroll down in the y-axis area - you will see "Show Secondary"

Use Line and Stacked Column Chart

When you turn on and open the Y-Axis options - there will be a scroll bar - scroll down to Show Secondary - Y-Axis(Line)

    Thank you Sean!! I see it now.

     

    The all-encompassing glorious grayness is really not helpful for discoverability of features. Especially since in the documentation screenshot it looks like the setting is at the top of the Y axis options, again, due to the bad color choice of the scroll bar.

     

    Feature request: Make scroll bars in the formatting sections more discoverable. Gray is not a good color!!

      Seems they have taken comment by teylyn very seriously. Secondary Axis option goes missing in April 2016 update. :(

        No it is still there in the Apr update, you just have to scroll down the thin grey bar far enough. Many features are potentially unseen due to this scroller / colour issue.
