Different Fonts In Chart Legend

Jan 15, 2007

I have a chart graphing different series, which includes a legend to label each series. The labels are linked to particular cells in the worksheet.

Most of the chart has Arial font formatting, but I need to change the formatting of a few characters in the legend:

I know that i can change the formatting of the whole legend, and even different entries in the legend. Is it possible to change the font of just a couple of characters in one legend entry?

Elements I need to change are:
Font type (eg from arial to symbol)
Size (varying from 8 to 14)
Bolding etc.

Dynamic Chart Legend Using VBA?

Jun 28, 2005

I am creating a chart where the number of data series used on the chart will change every time the code runs depending on what information people are looking for. That part works fine. I need a legend that shows which data series were added to the chart. Is there a way to get a dynamic legend on the chart that matches the data series, without manually adding it?

I have a chart with 20 series labels that are series 1, series 2.... etc. I want to label them with 20 corresponding cells but can't find how to do this in Excel 2010 (I seem to remember this being easy to do in older versions).

Legend Overlaps The Plot Area Of Chart

May 4, 2007

I have charts that needs to be placed on specific position and have specific sizes on a chartsheet. I use chartobjects(i).plotarea (top, left, width, height) for that.

Unfortunately when I set these values they still change and get antoher value, there is some scaling going on in Excel and I do not know where that comes from. I have been looking on the internet and finally I found a piece of code which works, but still not good enough, because the legend is also not good positioned.

De data for resizing the charts (ChtNew), the legends and the charttitle I get from other charts (ChtOrig). The legend.legendposition of ChtOrig does not have a value but it still have a top,left,height en width which I use.

I show you my code, the part with the for-next is taken from the internet.

With ChtNew.legend
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top
.Height = ChtOrig.Legend.Height
.Left = ChtOrig.Legend.Left
.Width = ChtOrig.Legend.Width '* 1.1
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top + ChtOrig.ChartTitle.Top
End With

Change Order Of Chart Legend Freely

Sep 25, 2007

see this example of a chart: see Image1.gif (the right thumbnail) as you can see 2 different types of graphs are combined: "lines with markers" and "clustered column".

in the legend one can see that the order inside the legend is clustered by the two types. within a type i can change the order easily (right click on a line or column - format data series - series order - up or down).

question: i would like to change the order freely. how to do this? for the order inside the legend i actually do not care at all, whether a representation of the data is a line or a column. i only want to make it as readable as possible. example what i'd like to get (made by handmodifing the picture with a drawing program): see Image3.gif (the left thumbnail)

Macro To Refresh Pivots Also Resets Chart Data Label Fonts

Aug 20, 2013

I have 6 pivot charts within a document. I use a macro associated with a button to refresh the tables and therefore the data displayed on the charts.

However, each time I refresh the data, the 'data label' font size also refreshes. What is particularly odd is that 5 of the charts are pie-graphs, of those 5 graphs, the font size only resets on 4 of them (with the data labels in a single chart staying at my desired font size).

I can manually put the font size back to that which I desire but I'd rather it just didn't change in the first place.

I've had a look to see if there's any noticeable differences between the 5 charts but there's nothing which I can find.

I'd be happy to run a bit of VBA to set the font size as I want it, if there isn't a better solution.

Series Order In Legend, Multiple Chart Types

Aug 4, 2006

I have a chart that combines 2 xy plots and a set of stacked columns ( total of 4 series).

I can adjust the series ordering between the 2 xy plots, and between the stacked columns, but not for all 4 at the same time.

I'd like the legend to show up as:

Series1, Series2, Series3, Series4

where 1 and 2 are the xy plots and 3 & 4 are the components of the stacked columns.

It is currently:

Series3, Series4, Series1, Series2

Any idea how to re-order the legend entries?

Maximum Number Of Fonts Per Doc?

Apr 24, 2007

I am using Excel 2003 and have a spreadsheet that lists 1521 fonts. I am using VBA and looping through the list of font names in column 1 and want to put an example of the font in column 2. I am trapping for error 1004 and using Resume Next. This works fine for 480 lines and then it just stops working. No error message or anything. The only thing I could think of is there might be a maximum number of fonts allowed per spreadsheete, but I would have though I would get an error.

No More New Fonts May Be Applied To This Worksheet

May 10, 2007

I have a very simple workbook in Excel 2000 with one page containing all my data which I update on a daily basis. Some of the data is linked to another workbook so that it updates each time I open it. Then I have 12 tabs, one worksheet for each month of the year with 10 simple graphs on each worksheet.

As you can see, it is a very simple worksheet. Each month, I copy and paste the graphs from the previous month into the current month and simply alter the Source Data in the graph to gather the current month's data. At the start of this month, it allowed me to copy and paste, but when I tried to alter the Source Data to the current month, I got a window on screen with a yellow triangle containing an exclamation mark and the words "No new fonts may be applied to this worksheet". If I click the OK button or the cross, it responds but the whole programme is locked. The only way I can get out is to give the 3 fingered salute and close Excel down.

No More New Fonts May Be Applied In This Workbook

Oct 10, 2007

I have a workbook with 33 worksheets and more than 150 charts. Now, when I right-click on a chart to access "Source Data" for example, I get a message saying "No more new fonts may be applied in this workbook". Then I have to click "OK" about a dozen times before I get access to the dialog box. Curiously, it happens for some charts and not for some others.

Fill Combobox With All Available Fonts

Jun 17, 2008

I am trying to find a quicker way to populate a ComboBox with every possible font available to the user on their particular computer in a manner other than simply using a ton of .AddItem statements.

Is it at all possible to get a user created ComboBox to essentially function the same way that the ComboBox for selecting font works normally? Or is it necessary to go through and add the statements myself?

I am creating a interface to specify default settings, one of which is font.

(Form TextBox) Multiple Fonts

Jan 4, 2010

I need to use two types of fonts to not only display a string of characters in a textbox but also past to a cell as viewed in the textbox.

An example string:

[#|:.010(M)|A|N(M)|B(M)]

The above string in Arial font would look like this:

[TP|Ø.010(M)|A|N(M)|B(M)]

I am simulating a GD&T instruction (Geometric Deimensioning and Tolerancing).

My dilema stems from the first character "[" and the last character "]".
I use both of these characters to open an instruction and close the instruction (as if all characters are surrounded by a rectangle).

What I cant figure out is how to isolate the first "[" and the last "]" (They will always be the first and last characters of an unknown string length). The first "[" would be an "Arial font" and the last would be an "Arial font" everything in between is another font (in this case Verisurf).
See attached example jpg file.
"verisurf1.jpg"

Verisurf uses both "[" and "]" as alternate characters. I only need to capture the first and last character if: 1. The first is a "[" and or the last is a "]". They will never be vice~versa.

Format Fonts Based On Date

Aug 14, 2006

In the attached excel sheet you can find 2 subheadings named Safety and Waiting. Like this i have many sub headings in my excel sheets. Each sub heading contains some rows. The below is the code i used to change the Font color based on the date values.

Every thing works fine. My requirement is if any rows added under subheading "Safety" then i want to run the loop from 1 st row to last row under this subheading which will change the color based on the given date.

How to identify under which subheading the row is added and which is first row and which is last row.

Sub CycleThrough()
Dim Counter As Integer
If ActiveCell.Column = 3 And ActiveCell.Row >= 3 And ActiveCell.Row <= 8 Then
For Counter = 3 To 8
If IsDate(Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Value) = True Then
If Date - Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Value >= 100 Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Font.Color = 255
ElseIf (Date - Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Value >= 70) And (Date - Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Value <= 100) Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Font.Color = 82400
ElseIf Date - Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 3).Value < 70 Then.......................................
