X-Axis word wrap
Is there a way to turn off the word wrap on the x-axis labels?
I have labels that are relatively long 2-3 words each, but I am not able to find a way to keep the text from wrapping. When a label wraps, it tends to overlap the next labels. I have plenty of room, but when I resize the chart, at seems to size of the x-axis label area moves proportionally. Can this area be enlarged? |

X-Axis word wrap
Hi,
You have very limited control over the layout of the axis labels. If you use the ChartArea format dialog you can uncheck the Auto Scale option on the Font tab. This will stop the font changing when you resize the chart and or plot area. Cheers Andy -- Andy Pope, Microsoft MVP - Excel http://www.andypope.info "JGreg7" wrote in message ...
