Excel XP - Chart Formatting (y axis)

Erick · Sep 15, 2003

Good day,

I have created a chart with text in the value axis title
and the secondary axis value title. The problem I'm having
is that the text within the title field is being cut off
or truncated. I can do a print preview and or print the
file and it shows up okay. It's only when I open the Excel
file that it shows the text as truncated.

Any thoughts on this one?

Thanks.

Erick

Thanks Debra. I'll give this a try.

You could try adding a couple of spaces and a period to the end of the
title. The period may be truncated, leaving the letters intact, or you
can format the period with white font, to hide it.

Hello,

I tried this and it did place all of the text in the
fields however the words were so jumbled up that you
couldn't read them.

Thanks again.
