    Make excel charts beautiful?

    Is there a way to make excel charts beautiful as on the modern dashboard websites?

    Yes, i know "beautiful" is subjective, but I am sure many will understand what I mean.

    I tried to check some templates and look for some add-ins, but couldn't find anything.

    Anyone knows of something ready that I can use?

    I hope one day Microsoft will hire a designer finally..

    Well, thanks for showing me first results of Google.. This stuff varies from ugly to extremely ugly :D

    Seriously though, I am talking about things you can see in infographics and Power BI. Some add-ins perhaps..

    Well then ... I haven't been any help at all.

    Guess I'll just crawl back into my hole under that rock over there.

    Best wishes !

    You can format charts to be beautiful to you and then store the formatting as a template, which can then be applied to similar charts.
    If templates don't work you could build yourself a library of VBA routines to make formatting.
