Create a project status spectrum chart in Excel
Kutools for Excel
A project status spectrum chart is used to compare and display the status of each project in Excel. Compared to the normal progress chart, the project status spectrum chart looks more professional and colorful.
Excel does not support a direct way to create such a chart, but with the Charts tool of Kutools for Excel, you can apply the Project Status Spectrum Chart feature to quickly draw this chart by 2 steps.

Click Kutools > Charts > Progress > Project Status Spectrum Chart. See screenshot:
In the popping Project Status Spectrum Chart dialog, click the selection icon to specify the cell ranges of axis labels and series values separately.
Click Ok, then a project status spectrum chart is created.
Axis Labels: click the selection icon next to Axis Labels to select the series legends that you want to show in the chart.
Series Value:click the selection icon next to Series Values to select the values of each series.
