Category Axis Lables

N

Naru70

I work with Excel a lot and I often get request to "Bold 1 or 2 lables on the Category Axis" of a graph...I'm unable to

customize a formula, so I just ended up floating the Bolded Text which I despised. IS THERE A TO DO THIS WITHOUT FLOATING THE TEXT

Thank You

You can construct an alternative axis, using a technique like this:

You can individually select and format the data labels that make up the
custom axis labels. One single click selects all the labels, the next
single click selects one of the labels. With one selected, and
formatting you apply is picked up only by the selected one.

Another trick: Rob Bovey's Chart Labeler, which is used in the example
to apply these labels to the chart, picks up the formatting of the
cells. So you could format the cell with the label's text, and the label
in the chart will use that formatting.
