    Why do I not see the whole axis title in Excel?

    When I create a chart in Excel the whole axis title on the Y axis is not
    shown. If I press Enter I see the title in two rows but still the last part
    of the two rows is not shown. When I sent the file to a collegue she could
    see the whole axis title but when returning the file I could still not. Is
    there a bug in my Excel. I have restarted the PC but that did not help

    Re: Why do I not see the whole axis title in Excel?

    This is an intermittent problem, and seems to depend on a combination of
    screen resolution (wide aspect ratio monitors being more susceptible), zoom
    factor, font and font size, and perhaps other undefinables. I've only had
    the problem on my computer once, with a strangely formatted workbook from a
    client. Some people get it frequently. It has occurred since at least Excel
    5, but was relatively rare before the wide screens came out.

    There seems to be no fix for the problem. A lame workaround is to type a
    couple spaces at the end of the title followed by a period (the spaces alone
    will not stretch the pseudo textbox). To hide the period from a user who is
    not having this problem, select the last character of the title (the period)
    and color the text to match the background.
