Default Stop graph from shrinking when hiding rows or columns

I have Office 2007 and everytime I hide a column of cells or two the graph
that is overlapping those columns shrinks. How can I avoid this?

Default Stop graph from shrinking when hiding rows or columns

Change the properties to NOT move and resize

I have Office 2007 and I cannot find those options. Under "Layout" there is a
properties button but it does not give those options, only allows me to name
it...?

I found the solution: You can click on the chart - select "Format" at the
top - click on the Size options and choose to have the chart not change when
cells are changed. Thanks!

can suggest is to move the chart out of the area or to a separate chart
sheet. Also, look here.

I tried to click on the chart, which is on the separate tab - and 'Format',
then size - but it doesn't give the 'choose to have the chart ont change,
when cells are changed' - could it be that I am working on a 2003 file in
2007?
