Cut Bar Chart


I have seen a cut bar chart before, but I did not have access to how it was done.  I have a bar chart where on many selection, the bar chart goes through the top of the chart.  The user wants a chart that is static up to a certain point, but that shows the value if past that point.  Can this be done?  The chart below can get to 200% and higher.  What I saw in the chart I am trying to replicate looked to be some sort of offset or break in the middle of the line, then it went up to the total.

Here is a sample of the chart:

Hi Justin,

you can set your static maximum as 180%  in the graph, that may work.

Saurabh,

I have tried that, but when the number goes over 200% the data point at the top no longer shows, which they would like to see under all circumstances while staying static.

Use static max

and even enable scroll bars.

Have you tried setting the data point location to the axis?

Rick,

I hadn't thought of that, good idea and I will check with the user if that will cover their requirement.  Still wondering if anyone has heard of the bar chart that I am describing.  The chart was similar to mine, but in the middle of the longer bars, there is a cutoff point, like a zig zag line, with a space, and then the bar continues.  This was used to cover a long interval from 0 and whatever number they ended at.  Has anyone seen this?
