I've created a 3d bar graph. Originally the Z and X axis title appeared, but
the X axis also had three of the 10 categories. I have a legend to identify
each of the 10 items, so all I want is the title of the categories. When I
roll my cursor over the area it pops up "category axis title" but I can't
right click or firmat the area.
Any clues?
 
Select the X-Axis, if you hover for a while tooltip "Category axis" may
appear. Double click or rt-click the Axis to display its "Format Axis"
dialog

Scale tab: change 'no. of categories between tick mark labels' to 1.
You may then need to adjust Font size and/or Alignment angle to suit, under
Font & Alignment tabs respectively.

Alternatively, double click the series (your columns),
DataLabels tab: Show Label, position to suit
