Graphs in excel
Hello, I have problems with graphs in the excel.
When I create them in the same sheet as the tables from what I made it, it's ok, but if I choose to move it to a new sheet it gets to a little square and looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/YHdZi
But it's supposed to look like this: https://imgur.com/a/y3ax8
Any suggestions on what's wrong and how can I fix it? Thanks.
Hello,
check that your computer has a valid printer installed and set as the default printer. If a chart sheet in Excel does not display correctly, that is often related to the default printer settings. If you don't have a default printer installed on your computer, select the "Microsoft Print to PDF" option as the default.
If a default printer is configured, check the default paper size and margins and ensure that they are set to A3 or Letter (depending on your country) and reasonable margins.
Let me know if that helps.

I believe you are not copying it properly, try to copy the graph using Ctrl+V, then paste Ctrl+C, in the new sheet. it will be exactly the same graph, if I understood your question properly.

This screens are from an old work that I've seen, now I can't open it and even made new graphs in new sheets. It's like pressed into a little square.
