Easily create a slope graph in Excel

Kutools for Excel

Boosts Excel With 300+
Powerful Features

In many cases, you may need to create a slope chart to compare data changes over time by plotting the change between two points only. In Excel, there is no build-in feature to create a slope chart directly. Normally, to create a slope chart in Excel, you need to insert a line with marker chart firstly and then format it with multi-step until it turns to a complete slope chart. Here, I will recommend the Slope Chart utility of Kutools for Excel. With this feature, you can easily create a slope chart with several clicks only.
