Resize and Move an Embedded Chart in Excel

Question

How do I resize and move an embedded chart in Excel?

Answer

An embedded chart is an object that you can move, resize or copy. Select the embedded chart to make it active; the selection handles will appear.
To resize the chart:

  • Drag the selection handles to increase or decrease the size of the chart
  • To keep the chart proportions the same as you resize, hold the Shift key as you drag one of the selection handles
  • To move the chart, make it active and then move the pointer over a blank area. Click and drag the embedded chart to the new location and release the mouse button
