How to change font size in charts without using custom theme?

[hilotbo1]

hey all,

is there a way to change the font size of axis labels and value labels in the charts (e.g. bar chart), without going down the customized theme route ? this is crucial for my use case since the dashboard users need to export the report to PDF. the default font size is way too small.

any ideas are appreciated!! thanks.

Starting from newer Qlik Sense versions, you can adjust font sizes directly within the chart’s properties panel under the "Appearance" or "Styling" section—no custom theme needed. Simply open the chart in Edit mode, go to the styling panel, and increase the font size for axis labels and values.

If you need more granular styling, you can use the Multi KPI extension as a workaround. Add a Multi KPI object, open its properties, and inject custom CSS to target specific chart elements. This lets you fine-tune font sizes without creating a full custom theme.
