Hi,

I have chart with dimension and expression. I would need to change the dimension text format to bold. so, I used

Text format ='<B>'

But it is showing in unbold. It seems the chages are not affected. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Amelia

You will have to Press Ctrl+G

After that whichever dimension you want to change the Text Format

Right click on the dimension> Select Custom Format Cell >Check Bold

Hi Amelia,

Changing font in "Axes" tab, changes for all the dimensions.

Thanks and you are right. But it is not showing the colour change in bar chart legend. only it is showing in straight/ pivot table. Is it like that?

Legend has again another Font button, that you can find in Chart Properties->Presentation->Legend->Settings->Font.
