I've set up a fairly simple bar chart that reads data values from a set of
cells into which I can enter any variety of numbers. I created this chart
and linked it to a small array of cells so that I can generate the same chart
for a bunch of different number sequences. Problem: Every time I enter a new
sequence of numbers to be charted, the layout of the chart auto-adjusts
itself -- the dimensions of the plot area enlarges or shrinks, sometimes the
x-axis scale changes, even the appearance of the data-labels changes.
How can I stabilize the layout of my chart? Is there a way to "lock" my
orginal chart layout parameters in place?

Many thanks in advance to the person who has a solution!
