The plot areas resize based on the font size, the length of the labels, the
wind speed and direction, and various other uncontrollable factors. I think
there may even be a slight difference if the chart or plot area is selected.

I have a utility, fairly rudimentary and not thoroughly documented, that I
use to line up charts and their plot areas:

I have several charts on a dedicated chart sheet, each with the same
number of bars of graphed data.

I want to adjust the plot area to a particular size within the chart area
for each chart. I have used the "Selection.Height" and the other
associated "selections" with some success, but the plot areas still seem
to reset themselves a bit.

Any ideas on how to fix this would be appreciated and my thanks in
advance.
