Default Can you automatically scale text in a graph? I'm hoping there's a way!


I have a nice graph that I have at the end of my macro that is created.
The amount of records that are included vary, depending on the dat
range picked in the beginning.

Is there code I can put in to automatically scale a graph? Sometime
if some of the titles are longer or if there are a lot of entries i
will mash all of the titles together so you can't read them.

Is there anyway to fix this? I really want to show this spreadshee
macro to the boss who I think will be very impressed. I'm using a ba
graph with horizontal bars and the labels on the left side.

I really hope there is a way,

Thanks!

You can change all aspects of the chart in code.
Record a macro of the changes you would like, then adapt the values to suit
your size/scale.

I'm not sure what to do. The labels of each bar on the left side of a
horizontal bar graph, sometimes when they are shown the text is all
mashed together, no matter how I set the graph, I can't seem to get it
to work all the time. It will seem that it is fitting everytime, but
certain ones (possibly when the labels are a little too long) are
causing it to be all mashed together.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

~J
