Excel Chart Template Resizing Issue

Anonymous

I am using Excel 2013 chart templates and when I open the files on different computers the chart resizes by itself even though I selected 'Don't move or size with cells'. It seems like the charts are resizing due to the screen resolution but even if the file isn't saved and just opened on a different computer the chart gets resized. Any suggestions?

    We found a solution to this issue! The display size of our computers appear to impact the excel chart sizes. This can be changed by right clicking on desktop, then select personalize and then select display. When we changed our display size on all of the computers to medium, the chart size no longer changes when opened on different computers.

    Hi,

    I'm using the same version of Excel on the computers so Excel 2013. Do you have any suggestions for resolving this issue or is there something we can do to make the setup the same on each computer to prevent this issue from occurring?

    Thanks,

    Nancy

    Hi Nancy,

    Microsoft Excel comes in different versions. Chart templates resize itself depending on the version of Excel and how it was setup on a computer.
