Describe the solution you'd like
In order to visualize shear, moment, etc. it's handy to include XLscatter charts in worksheets or workbooks; however, creating and fine-tuning them includes a lot of repetitive tasks that are begging to be automated. I'll start working on a PR that adds a basic toolkit for these tasks in the form of a new module (working title = "DiagramTools") and if appropriate an associated class module once I become more familiar with the ins/outs of OOP.
Additional context
Some initial ideas:
Support for multiple collinear beam elements, i.e. each member is a separate series with local-x transformed by adding .iNode.Xcoord of that member (or iNode.Ycoord for columns, or whatever is appropriate for sloped members... Pythagoras, right?).
Automatically set min/max bounds and major/minor units of X-axis based on X coordinates of the member(s)
Experiment with implementation of user-defined preferences for chart format characteristics such as colors, linetype, use of Excel's built-in styles, etc.

Have you been able to make any progress on this issue? I am not super familiar with all aspects of this project but I am fairly familiar with VBA graphs and may be able to contribute.
I have not. I've been focusing my efforts on the PyNite repository lately getting plate elements implemented. I may come back to this, but it's honestly a lower priority. I would be glad to have help in maintaining xlFrame going forward. That's the reason I posted it to GitHub.
