There are two main areas of the chart. These areas control different settings and attributes for
the chart. See Figure 25: The Chart wall and Chart area.
Chart wall contains the graphic of the chart displaying the data.
Chart area is the area surrounding the chart graphic. The main title and the key are in
the chart area.
Note: Chart Floor from the Format menu is only available for 3D charts and has the same
formatting options as Chart Area and Chart Wall.
Knowing the difference between the chart wall and chart area is helpful when formatting a
chart.
1) Click on the chart.
2) Green sizing handles appear around the chart. To increase or decrease the size of the
chart, click and drag one of the markers in one of the four corners of the chart. To
maintain the correct ratio of the sides, hold the shift key down while you click and
drag.
1) Double-click the chart so that is enclosed by a gray border.
2) Click any of the elements—the title, the key, or the chart graphic—to select it. Green
resizing handles appear.
3) Move the pointer over the selected element. When it becomes a four-headed arrow,
click and drag to move the element.
4) Release the mouse button when the element is in the desired position.
