Chart

[bruegggw]

Can I change the font used in a chart? I tried FontName and SetFont but they have no effect.

You can not change the font type, but the font sizes of the different items.

See ChartTitleFontSizeFactor, ChartXLabelFontSizeFactor, ChartYLabelFontSizeFactor, etc.

Sehr geehrter Herr Radde,

wieso ist ein Fontwechsel denn nicht möglich? Bei mir wird grundsätzlich Times verwendet, im restlichen Dokument kommt Arial zu Einsatz. Das sieht doch etwas merkwürdig aus.

Freundliche Grüße

ok, sorry.

is it possible to explain, why this feature isn't supported by VPE? We are using VPE to create text documents with different font styles. Our customers request a consistent font style in the whole document.

Kind regards
Thore Simon

We have put this onto the internal "wishlist". At this point in time we can not promise when it will be implemented, but we will check if we can do this for the next release.

The next release wil allow to set the font name separately for the following chart items: title/subtitle, footnote, legend and labels.
