Peltier Technical Services, Inc., Copyright © 2016. I've written about Excel chart error bars in Error Bars in Excel Charts for Classic Excel and in Error Bars in Excel 2007 Charts for New Excel. Both articles contained instructions for adding custom error bar values for individual points, but judging from the emails
How To Add Horizontal Error Bars In Excel
I receive, a separate article on custom error bars is needed. You cannot add custom error bar values excel error bars mac to a single point in a chart. However, you can individual custom error bar values to all points in a plotted series. You need to put all

of the individual error bar values into a range of the worksheet. I usually put these values in the same table as the actual X and Y values Manually Defining Custom Error Bars Sample Data and Charts Suppose we have the following data: X and http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel-mso_mac/how-do-i-change-the-width-ie-line-length-of-the/1a54349d-8354-4f40-b4b9-c3f9fbcc7168 Y values, plus extra columns with positive and negative error bar values for both X and Y directions. The data is set up so that, for example, cells C2 and D2 have the values for the positive and negative horizontal (X) error bars for the point defined by X and Y values in A2 and B2. Cells E2 and F2 have the values for the positive and negative vertical (Y) error bars for this point. The series is plotted using all the data at once, with X in A2:A6 and http://peltiertech.com/custom-error-bars-in-excel-charts/ Y in B2:6. The error bars are also drawn using all the error bar data at once: C2:C6 and D2:D6 for horizontal and E2:E6 and F2:F6 for vertical. The chart itself is easy: create an XY chart using the data in columns A and B. The protocols for adding custom error bars differ between Classic Excel and new Excel. After following the appropriate protocol below, the chart will have custom error bars on each data point, based on the additional columns of data. This chart shows just the Y error bars, to show clearly that each point has custom values different from other points: This chart shows the X and Y error bars: Important Note A single custom error bar value cannot be added to a single data point, and custom error bar values cannot be added to a series of data points one point at a time. If you select a single value for your custom error bars, this single value will be applied to all points in the series. A whole set of custom error bar values can be added to an entire series in one operation. Put your custom values into a range parallel to your X and Y values as I've done with this sample data, then use the manual technique or the utility to add all the values to the chart series in one step. New Excel (2007 and later) It is harder to apply error bars in Excel 2007 than in earlier versions. There is no convenient tab on the Format Series dialog. The Error Bar tab(s) as well as the

I tried the following code: (_, caplines, _) = matplotlib.pyplot.errorbar( data['distance'], data['energy'], yerr=data['energy sigma'], capsize=10, elinewidth=3) for capline in caplines: capline.set_linewidth(10) capline.set_color('red') pp.draw() Unfortunately, this updates the color of the caps, but does not update the line width of the caps! The resulting effect is similar to the "fat error bar lines / thin caps" in the following image: It would be nice to have "fat" bar caps, in the case; how can this be done, in Matplotlib? Drawing the bar caps "manually", one by one with plot() would work, but a simpler alternative would be best. python matplotlib share|improve this question edited Sep 29 '11 at 20:45 August Lilleaas 36.6k77695 asked Sep 29 '11 at 17:49 EOL 39.4k21122180 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 22 down vote accepted EOL, you were very close.., distance = [1,3,7,9] energy = [10,20,30,40] sigma = [1,3,2,5] (_, caps, _) = plt.errorbar(distance, energy, sigma, capsize=20, elinewidth=3) for cap in caps: cap.set_color('red') cap.set_markeredgewidth(10) plt.show set_markeredgewidth sets the width of the cap lines.
