Report Generation tool kit excel chart legend font size

Hello



I'm having trouble with the My LabView 20012 report generation tool kit. I'm attempting to create an excel report with an XY graph. (so fore so good)
however when I set the "Has Legend" input on the "Excel_Insert_Chart.vi" the Legend font is huge.
I have found a solution dated back to 2007 which suggests changing the Excel_Insert_Chart sub vi (contained in the Excel_Insert_Chart.vi) (see attachment)


http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Setting-the-title-font-and-axis-labels-in-a-graph-created-with/td-p/...


This solution works well, however, because the report generation toolkit is part of the LabView package,
my changes won't carry over if I port my project to another PC (and may be lost if my PC were break down.



Can you suggest a solution?



Thanks in advance

Hi Nickleback,

 

There is a function to manage the Word and Excell Legend Font Size:

 

Excel Set Graph Font:

Hi,

 

Looks like the Excel Set Graph Font can be used only to set the axis font and not the legend font. The best workaroud is probably the forum post you have already found.

 

Thanks and Regards,
