Title: Display whole annotation of axis
Post by: Sonnfan on 03 Jan 2011 06:21:18 AM
Hi all,

I'm displaying values of the last 3 Month for different categories. The names of the categories are naturally shown under the x-Axes under every triplette of bars.

The Problem is, Report Studio cuts the end of the names to shorten them (e.g. Kateg...). How can I turn off that function to show the whole length of the names? I just can't find the appropriate option. =/

With regards,
Sonnfan

Edit: Just found it... But now the names are overlapping each other, because Report Studio then makes two lines out of the names... Can't I display them in just one line?

This is an usual behavior.... Can you try with increased the Overall chart size and define small font for X-axis?

Thanks

Thanks, this one did it. It's neither an elegant solution nor it looks very beautiful, but it's working. xD
