Default Legend entries into columns

Resize the legend, making it wider and not as tall.

That's a lot of items in a stacked chart. Is it going to be legible?

Hi everyone,

I have 25 different entries per column going into a stacked column graph
with only 3 columns total. However, in order to see the legend when
putting
into a .ppt presentation, the legend must have a sizable font size and the
legend becomes taller than the graph. I was wondering if there was a way
to
show the legend with ~13 entries side-by side rather than one long column.
This would just somehow show the legend entries differently than the
default.


Can anyone help me or is this impossible to do in Excel?

Thanks,
Debbie
