Make Zero Line Bold in Excel Graph

Option 1: Format Directly

To bold the zero line in an Excel graph, click the line on the graph to select it. Right-click and choose 'Format Axis'. In the formatting options, adjust the line weight to make the zero line more prominent. This method directly formats the zero line on the y-axis at 0%.

Option 2: Use Secondary Axis

For easier bolding of the zero line, add an additional data series plotted against a secondary axis. This method simplifies the process of making the zero line bold. Within the chart options, select 'Secondary Axis' for the new data series. Format this series to create a bold zero line.
