    Unhappy Changing the size of a graph's text field

    Okay, the title is weird. What I mean is this:
    Click image for larger version.

    I can change the size of the space the bars are in, but not the text's. And considering the length of the text, it's kind of annoying.


    Sorry if this seems noobish, but I'm just not sure what to search for this, or if it's possible.

    In edit view you can change all elements in your chart including font size used in title, axes and at end of each bar (too big in my opinion.
    That chart space will automatically resize as you do so.
    You can also modify the overall size of the chart area by grabbing the border and dragging.
    With a bit of tweaking you should get your desired result.

    Ok, finally figured it out.
    1)Change the size of the font.
    2)Resize the bar part of the graph as far left as possible
    3)???
    4)The graph autosizes and the words finally fit.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
