Broken charts

[mrtn]

Hi

All of my charts are suddenly broken - all text is overlapping and none of the settings seem to be able to fix it. I have also tried Online repair but that doesn't seem to work either...

Did your computer recently get any updates from MS?

I can see there was a cumulative update installed yesterday. This however, is on my work laptop and these are managed by the administrator. Just checked o one of my colleagues' laptop and it seems to work fine.

The only thing that comes to my mind is Visual Studio which I have recently had installed. Would that cause an issue?

Hi. I can't say for sure what caused the issue. Typically, when something works and all of a sudden doesn't, then something has changed, and one of the easiest target to check is any updates to the software on the machine in question.

Ok thanks for the suggestion. Just uninstalled the Visual Studio and no joy. I guess I will have to convert them to modern charts which seem to work. I went with the old type because of formatting limitations of the new chart but I guess I need to start an entirely new topic on that issue.

Thanks anyway.

Good luck!
