I'm still stymied, but after some more exploring, and noting which options
are grayed out for me, I'm going to give some more details about my
sreadsheet.

I have a spreadsheet that tracks work orders in a production studio. There's
a worksheet that tracks a week of work by the hour. I made a chart from that
data, and moved it to its own worksheet.

My spreadsheet has each week of the year, and each week has two charts on
separate worksheets that represent different data. So my spreasheet has over
100 charts on separate worksheets.

One day last week I opened up my spreadsheet, and every chart was resized so
it no longer fit inside its window. This happened globally to 2 different
types of charts, and it's a lot of work to resize each one individually. I
don't know how it happened, but I'm willing to believe it was user error
(though I have no idea what I could have done to cause it). But if I did
cause it, there must be some way to get back in and fix it. I am looking for
that way.

Thanks,
Bob Venezia

Hi Shane,

Thanks for your response, but I'm stymied at step one. F5 has no effect.
What is the menu equivalent of F5?

Thanks,
Bob Venezia

Hi,

You can do it for all charts on a sheet:

1. Press F5, Special, Objects
2. Right-click any of the charts and choose Format Object
3. Enter a Height and Width on the Size tab and press OK.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

I have a spreadsheet that contains multiple instances of 2 different charts,
based on templates. Yesterday I opened the spreadsheet and all the charts
were resized so they information no longer fit into the window around the
chart. This happened to all the charts. There must be a way to get them all
resized to the way they were, globally.
