Formatting Charts
You can resize and reposition charts and chart legends the same way you work with
other objects. You can format chart elements—fonts, colors, axis labels, and tick
marks—to suit your preferences. You can hide the chart legend and adjust the angle
and lighting style of 3D charts. You can also hide the chart legend. Most chart
formatting tasks are done using the Chart Inspector. You can also accomplish many of
the tasks described in this section using shortcut menus.
To open the Chart Inspector:
1
Click Inspector in the toolbar (or choose View > Show Inspector).
2
In the Inspector window, click the Chart Inspector button.
