MinFontSize (Property)

Applies To:

ChartSection object

Description:

Sets the minimum font size applied to text labels when the overall Chart size is changed. Normally, Interactive Reporting tries to draw a Chart component using the requested font size of the component. If it is not possible to fit it in the available space, the font size is reduced by one point and a redraw is attempted. This font size reduction process is repeated until the component can fit within the component’s boundary or until it reaches the value specified here or the corresponding Min Font Size field on the General tab of Chart properties.

The components to which the MinFontSize property is applied are:

When the component is reduced, the selection of the component continues to show the original font size and not the reduced font size in the Min Font Size on the General tab during the reduction process. When the minimum font size is reached for the supported components, and the component is still too large to fit without obstructing or being obstructed, then the component is removed from the display.

The default minimum font size is 8.

Action:

Read-write, Number

Example:

This example shows how to set the font size twelve points:

ActiveDocument.Sections["Chart"].MinFontSize = 7
