Hint:

Use ‘Text Options’ to professionally format chart labels and titles—especially for reports and presentations.

Answer 1

Charts in MS Excel consist of multiple elements like chart title, axis title, data labels, etc., all of which contain text. Excel allows detailed customization of these elements through the 'Text Options' pane. Steps to modify Text Option: \begin{enumerate}
Click or right-click on the desired text element (e.g., chart title).
Choose ‘Format Chart Title’ or ‘Format Axis Title’.
A side panel opens with ‘Text Options’.
There are three icons under Text Options:
Text Fill & Outline: Change font color, add border or outline.
Text Effects: Apply shadow, reflection, glow, or 3D effects.
Text Box: Adjust alignment, margins, text direction. }
Apply desired changes and close the panel. This functionality helps users improve chart readability, aesthetics, and makes presentations more impactful.
