I have two problem with chart display in Mac Excel 2021 Home and Student, 16.68. Running MacOS 12.6.
1. Charts frequently display as blank, and when I use Select Data for the blank box, it's empty — no data series therein.
What's especially odd: the chart will come back, both the display, and series in Select Data, reappear.
2. A. The line colors in line charts change randomly when I close then reopen a workbook. B. Some lines (and their data series) just disappear.

...suggest that it has to do with an obscure setting:
"Properties follow chart data point."
This is supposed to be under File:Options. I have no such choice on the main File menu, and there is no File menu on my ribbon. Also don't find any such setting in Excel:Preferences.
Any help much appreciated. Thanks.
