Did a search but couldn't find anything on this. I'm hoping that it's such an obvious thing that no one has needed to ask it & I'm just missing the obvious. I'm trying to make a chart in in iwork/ pages. I want to do a chart of different people's ages but i'd like to plot them with different starting points, so that they don't all start on the X (or Y) Axis, but are kind of stagered. Say that person one starts at the Y Axis, with the year being 1900, they live to be 44 & pass away in 1944. Person 2 is born in 1912, but lives to 1981, so their starting point wouldn't be along the Y Axis, but would start 12 points in & would end at the 1981 point. Person 3 was born in 1937 & died in 1997, so their starting pint would be not at the Y axis (which is 1900) but would be 1937.
Any ideas is this can be done & if so, how would I get it to work.
