The zoom can do strange things to charts. Try this:
Create a chart at 100%. Change to another zoom, copy the chart and paste it.
The pasted chart appears at a size relative to the original which is
proportional to the zoom. So if the zoom is 50%, the pasted chart is 50% of
the original's size. If the zoom is 200%, the pasted chart is twice as
large.

Working at a zoom of anything but 100% leads to unpleasant results. I
cannot
give you any specifics but over the years I've learnt to stay away from
anything but 100% zoom in XL.
In the few instances where I have absolutely had to use a 75% or so zoom,
I
have been extremely careful to make sure that whatever I design works at
the
intended zoom.
If you search support.microsoft.com you will find several articles on
this,
or related, topics.

Hi All
I have following Issue:
I have a rather big Excel worksheet with 3 charts on it.
On these Charts I have placed some textfields.
Now the weird thing is, that if I zoom extremly, my Charts
get messed up, textfields are changing their size and all!
Can I somehow lock these, so that this doesn't happen
anymore? Would really appreciate an answer, as this
would be a real disaster for me.
Thanks in Advance for any Reply
