Create a chart based on multiple datas in the same row
Dear Community,
My question is (I believe) very simple to answer, but somehow being pretty new to Excel I cannot figure out how to solve it.
I want to create a (pie) chart based on multiple datas that are all in the same row, but different columns.
As you can see in the picture, I want to create a pie chart that shows me how my expenses, which are divided in 7 categories, are actually split. I tried to create it selecting the name of the category and its expense by holding cmd/crtl, but when I create the chart it only considers the “Food” category and its price. As you can see from the columns highlighted in green, I am actually selecting all those cells, but somehow it does not work.
I overcame the problem once by listing the categories and the prices in the same columns, but in different rows and it worked. But I cannot believe that it’s not possible if the datas are on the same row, there must be a way, right?!
I want to mention that I have a Mac and use Excel online, in case this influences it.
I look forward to hearing from some expert 😉
Thank you in advance
