I have a chart open in Excel 2007 that is not in compatibility mode. It's an
X-Y Scatter. I Go to the Chart Tools ribbon and hover my mouse over the top
of a Chart Layout and it doesn't show the preview. I go to the format
ribbon, select a Label and the WordArt Styles do work.

Live Preview is turned on from the Excel Options and I do not have Live
Meeting or Communicator installed. Any ideas for the reason behind it?

Thanks!
Rich
 
Hi Rich,

Microsoft has not enabled live preview for most or all of the chart area
probably because of speed issues - you are not doing any wrong!
