Default truncation of y-axis text

Hi,

The truncation is a know problem.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;870698

A work around is to add additional characters to the end of the text.
Try using the non-breaking space character. To enter this type ALT+0160
using the numeric keypad.

Cheers
Andy

Andy

Thanks for the advice. I was already adding spaces but this is very clumsy
and was looking for a more permanent answer.

I looked up http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;870698,
changed screen resolution to 1024x768 but still the same.

thanks anyway
