Resizing and Moving a Chart


To change the size or position of a chart:

  1. Select the entire chart by holding down CTRL and clicking on the chart. Selection handles will appear on the outside border of the chart.
  2. Drag the selection handles to change the size or shape of the chart.
  3. Hold down CTRL and drag on the body of the chart to move the chart to a new position. You can also move the pointer to the edge of the chart until it turns into a four-arrow cursor, then drag.

Note Like other graphical objects, chart objects are anchored to the cells upon which they appear. If you shrink or expand the row height or column width of any of the cells behind the chart, the chart will shrink or expand accordingly.
