Resizing columns [same data source]

[Helene Noel]

Hi!

I have created a chart where data results from the same source and of the
same kind. But the results of one column are very higher than the others
resulting in a disproportionated first columns which makes the chart
difficult to read for the readers. I often saw charts in publications where
the higher colum is "broken" in the middle, making the chart more
userfriendly.

Can anyone help me on this?

Thanx!
