On a cascade chart, the height of the red and green boxes represents the amount of change in the items listed below the box on the X axis.

The value of the boxes can be shown in the middle, at the top or at the bottom of the box. Such charts are an excellent way to explain change.

The Cascade Chart Creator is totally menu driven.

Creating a Excel Cascade Chart

  • You can specify the cells (in rows or columns) containing the values to be plotted
  • Or, you can enter your values into an input form and have a chart and a table of data created.

With either approach, you can plot as many data points as you want. And you can delete points you don't need. You can have multiple total values in a chart, not just totals at the end points. And, if you do not plot totals, you can create a brickyard style cascade chart, like the last example above.

Click on the following thumbnails to see the Cascade Chart Creator's formatting and other options menus. These menus allow you to specify colors, solid or gradient fill, show values and position, and many other options:
