Line Chart Lables

[LadyDi]

Is there a way to resize the lables of a Line Chart? I have a line chart showing the actions taken on a piece of equipment. My only problem, is that sometimes the label can be quite lengthy. Instead of wrapping the text, Excel just stretches the label, causing it to run into other labels. I can see the little sizing handles, however it won't let me get a hold of them. I can move the label around, but I can't resize it. I don't want to move the label, I just want to make it higher instead of wider. Is this possible?

I believe you can only format the font. if you dont have that many labels, you could instert your own text boxes to use as the labels; that would give you the control you're looking for...but could take a minute.
