Is it possible to add a label and a second y-axis to a clustered column chart?

I have a clustered column chart with data that I'd like to split up but still visualize on the same page. I added another field to essentially denote which category the records belong to, and I'd like to split up by category (CAT1 and CAT2). If possible, I'd like to add in the second y-axis but that seems like a stretch.

 

What would be a good way to visualize this? My last resort would be just concatenating the category name into the field labels, but I'd like a more high level visual to show the split. End goal is the attached picture - nothing fancy, maybe  a different background for the right side would help but isn't required

HI, @kimchizal

Currently only Combo Charts have the second y-axis, you may try to add "CAT1" values into Column Values and 

"CAT2" values into Line Values. then enable second Y-axis in Format->Y-axis->Show secondary

For example:
