floating bar chart datasheet manipulation

[lapaz]

I'm trying to create a floating bar chart where the beginning of the bar
isn't on the y-axis, but rather where I specify along the x-axis. The
floating bar chart allows this, but I want to continue to add data to the
datasheet so that I can display various series and categories of data. The
format of the chart requires that you enter a beginning point, and a length
of the bar. It seems to take the data from whatever two rows you select.
You select the rows by double clicking on the rows. Somehow the program has
automatically defined several of my rows as rows that specify length, while
others specify the beginning of the bar. I want to know how to change the
type of row. I have only been able to add 4 length rows, and every row that
I've add since has been a beginning row. Is this a limitation of the
program, or is there a way to change the way the program treats the data on a
row?

I'm a little confused as to what you're trying to do, but basically, I think
if you use a stacked bar chart, you'll be able to put in the data you need.
Make the first data series dummy data and set the formatting so it matches
the background. That will effectively create your floating bars...
