Excel's chart title sizing

[prev] [thread] [next] [lurker] [Date index for 2006/11/20]

A very specific hate, I know. But there it is. I hate Excel's chart
axis title sizing.

Excel, very helpfully, automatically sizes the axis titles. However, it
sizes the vertical ones WRONG. And then it doesn't let you resize them.
Because, after all, it couldn't possibly have done it entirely
incorrectly, cutting off most of the title. Nope. Totally impossible.

It then proceeds to display resize handles on them. They're useless, of
course. You can move the title around, but you can't resize it. And so
the handles just sit there. Mocking me.

At this rate, it would have been 10x faster to save the chart as an
image and edit it in an image editor than it's been to make it work
properly.

HATE.
