Once and for all, I wish to find a solution to this ongoing problem for which I have failed to find a fix over the last two years.
I have a program (Excel VBA) that performs the following statements in a loop:
The purpose is to copy an arrowhead image from a worksheet onto a point in a series in myChart (Chart object). Each series is a vertical line consisting of two points (one on each end) and presenting a vector force, and the arrowhead image is simply the pointer on the end of the force vector.
The problem is that whenever Excel decides that too many arrowheads (sometimes only four) have been pasted to the chart, the following warning message is raised:
"Complex formatting that is applied to the selected chart may take a while to display. Do you want to continue using formatting? [Yes/No]".
The arrowhead images are very simple and, in my opinion, should never raise any preformance concerns, but Excel seems to take exception. To this day, in all of my research and experimenting, I have not discovered a way to supress or eliminate this message.
Does anyone here have a proven solution to this issue? Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
