I am not sure if this is possible in excel but...

I have my data set up as Date, Event 1 Start Time, Event 1 Duration, Event 1 End Time, Event 2 Start Time, Event 2 Duration, Event 2 End Time. (see image)

What I would like is a scatter chart with Date on the x-axis. I want all the dates from the first day in the range to the last day in the range displayed, i.e. if an event didn't happen on a particular day I want there just to be a blank day.

I would also like time on the y-axis, I want the range to be midnight to midnight, i.e. a full day.

I would like to track events so if Event 1 occurred from 9:00 am and lasted 30 mins, I want to be able to see a vertical line from 9:00 to 9:30.

I also have more than one event type that I would like to see overlayed.

Is this possible? Copilot thought it was but it turns out that it was unable to explain how to do it...

Many thanks :)
