Alright, so imagine there are y values - speed: 10, 0, 10, 10
and corresponding x values - time in seconds: 0, 20, 40, 50

Now, how can I show that at the 11th second it suddenly stops, then after 2 seconds continues with the speed of 40?
So I want the line to go vertically downward.
I tried doing like this:
x values: 0, 10, 11, 20, 40, 50
y values: 10, 10, 0, 10, 10, 10

but it didn't work, x ticks are still the same, even though the distance between the y's 10 and 11 is smaller than between 11 and 20.

So I guess one way to make this work is to decrease tick mark on the x between 10 and 11's y value, and keep the remaining tick marks intact, how?

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
But still, I'm curious, how to decrease x tick mark between certain x points only?

Like, if your x tick marks are separated by 20, then 6.9 and 7 would be at the same distance as 40 and 60.
wtf
