I don't want my text to wrap
I've got a text box filled with text, and then I want to put a circle over it (filled white, so that the circle blocks out the text behind it, but the text continues uninterrupted behind the circle). For some reason I can't get this to work, even though I've turned off text wrapping on the text box, whenever I put the circle over the text box it still wraps around the contours of the circle. Your statement is a bit fuzzy. Do you want the text to be blocked out so you can't see it? -- Don Vancouver, USA "Craig" <Craig@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote...

How to show total in pie chart (Excel 2000)

Chart Formatting Change
Why does chart formatting (font color, size) in 2007 change when the file is re-opened? (It looked correct when I saved and closed the file.) The changes are relatively random, sometimes occurring on only some of the graphs but sometimes on all of the graphs, and will happen when I open the file this morning but not when I open the file later in the afternoon. I have this same problem and came looking for an answer. Since I haven't found one, I'm going to use a marco that changes it back to my colors upon opening the excel file. If anyone out there has an easier way. I'd l...

How do I display the sum of 2 data series on a column chart?
I have created a simple column chart (Stacked Column Chart) that displays 2 series (stacked) per month over a year.

macro in chart loses focus
I have four dashbards each with 4 charts containing macros, and each in it's own workbook. The data for the macros is all in the same workbook. It works fine. This morning I had a request to create a table of contents so that the user could click a button and open a dashboard. I crated this in a separate workbook. It includes buttons with macros so, if the user clicked on army, for example, they would go to the dashboard with all of the army information. I created it in it's own workbook. Then I decided that if they were going to use a table of contents to go to a dashboard, I...

How do I create this chart?
Item Height Width Min Max Min Max A 2 4 10 20 B 4 6 9 12 C (etc.) The chart would show a rectangular area for each item with the height plotted on the X axis against width on the Y axis.

Avoid Printing the Combo Box with the Chart
I have a chart sheet with a combo box which I use to select the county I'm interesting in plotting. My question for the group - is there a way to keep the combo box from printing with the chart? Perhaps what I need to do is simply create the chart on a worksheet and print it from there. Just thought I would ask. Its not critical, but I thought it would look nicer if I could leave the combo box off. I wanted to use the chart sheet just to keep things "cleaner". Mike Hi, Right click the combo box and on the properties tab uncheck the Print Object. Cheers Andy mtonkovich...

Charts based on 'virtual' names
Hi all, Just upgraded from Office 97 to Office 2007 (big jump!) and trying to fix the things that broke! I routinely make so-called "dynamic" charts in the traditional manner using ranges defined by formula which resolve to ranges of cells e.g. define 'Bias & Precision'!Samples as =OFFSET('Bias & Precision'!$A$2,0,0,COUNTA('Bias & Precision'!$A:$A)-1) I've had a couple of snags with these but it seems to still work as long as I watch the scope of the names. What seems to be very "broken" is the use of names which do not resolve...

Autoscale fonts for charts in 2007
Is there a toggle that turns off the auto-scaling of fonts in a chart, for 2007? My theory is that it was replaced by the "Character Spacing" tab. Did the "autoscale" feature die an appropriate death? It used to appear on the dialog for formatting fonts in the Chart Title, Axis Labels, Legend, Axis scale, etc. I can’t find it in Excel 2007. Thanks for any thoughts! I thought I knew where that setting was, but now I can't find it. It's confusing, since chart elements no longer have a font-related tab in their format dialogs. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Micr...
