How to Make Pie Charts the Same Size
Alan -
You have two issues. To prevent the fonts from mucking it up, you need to disable font autoscaling: http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/FixFonts.html I have a utility that I use to resize chart areas and plot areas to make them all the same size. It's quick and dirty, and will shrink the charts until all are the same. But I just checked, and it works on pie charts as well as rectangular charts: http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Zips/Al...Dimensions.zip Manually stretch the pies before running the program, and if it doesn't completely work the first time, run it again. If you have data labels, they might confuse the issue. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ Alan Bell wrote: I made 10 pie charts using Excel 2003. But, even though the data is similar, the size of the charts vary. If I resize the charts (after the fact) so they are the same size, the point side of the captions varies do to the re-sizing. Plus it's a bear to resize so they are identical. How can I get Excel to make the size of the pie charts the same from the get-go? |
