Drawing Rectangles in Excel
I have some columns of data that I would like to have Excel use to draw rectangles for me. is there an easy way to do this?
Example: Column 1 is car length, with Col2 - width; col3 = car ht. I have these data for several sports cars to compare their size and each row contains the data for a different car (e.g. an RS 550; a Miata; a Bugeye Sprite) I want to get a (sloppy, but quick) visual comparison of relative size by having Excel draw up 2 or 3 rectangles (maybe even overlappiing). any ideas? |

Is it ok for them to overlap at the corner and not share a center? Because then you just make a scatter plot with straight lines and make horizontal and vertical lines.

it would be nice if I could put the small rectangle 'inside' and centered on at least 1 axis... |
