Hi Guys,
I want to be able to edit axis of a chart (a "F11" chart not a chart within a sheet) by entering in numbers within cells.
See the "Chart1 tab" and "Chart2 tab"
The following code words for a chart within a sheet, but I dont know how to select a chart if that chart is it's own tab.
Option Explicit
Function setChartAxis(sheetName As String, chartName As String, MinOrMax As String, _
ValueOrCategory As String, PrimaryOrSecondary As String, Value As Variant)
'create variables
Dim cht As Chart
Dim valueAsText As String
'Set the chart to be on the same worksheet as the function
'Set cht = Application.Caller.Parent.ChartObjects(chartName).Chart
Set cht = Application.Caller.Parent.Parent.Sheets(sheetName) _
.ChartObjects(chartName).Chart
'Set Value of Primary axis
If (ValueOrCategory = "Value" Or ValueOrCategory = "Y") _
And PrimaryOrSecondary = "Primary" Then
With cht.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary)
If IsNumeric(Value) = True Then
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScale = Value
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScale = Value
Else
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
End If
End With
End If
'Set Category of Primary axis
If (ValueOrCategory = "Category" Or ValueOrCategory = "X") _
And PrimaryOrSecondary = "Primary" Then
With cht.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary)
If IsNumeric(Value) = True Then
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScale = Value
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScale = Value
Else
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
End If
End With
End If
'Set value of secondary axis
If (ValueOrCategory = "Value" Or ValueOrCategory = "Y") _
And PrimaryOrSecondary = "Secondary" Then
With cht.Axes(xlValue, xlSecondary)
If IsNumeric(Value) = True Then
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScale = Value
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScale = Value
Else
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
End If
End With
End If
'Set category of secondary axis
If (ValueOrCategory = "Category" Or ValueOrCategory = "X") _
And PrimaryOrSecondary = "Secondary" Then
With cht.Axes(xlCategory, xlSecondary)
If IsNumeric(Value) = True Then
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScale = Value
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScale = Value
Else
If MinOrMax = "Max" Then .MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
If MinOrMax = "Min" Then .MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
End If
End With
End If
'If is text always display "Auto"
If IsNumeric(Value) Then valueAsText = Value Else valueAsText = "Auto"
'Output a text string to indicate the value
setChartAxis = ValueOrCategory & " " & PrimaryOrSecondary & " " _
& MinOrMax & ": " & valueAsText
End Function
