jfritchey Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I cut text from an Excel worksheet and paste it into a text box on an historical chart. Text is set to left alignment. In QT I can drag the right edge of the box to the text in the box to eliminate the blank space and reduce the size of the box so the box does not conflict with trend lines. I then pull the bottom of the box down to get the desirable font size depending on the data on the chart. When I do this resizing in MT the text in the box is reduced. How do I eliminate the blank space without reducing the font size. Is there a charter string I can place in the Excel data so MT will not display blank space after the data fileds? I tried a Horozontal tab character Ansi 09 but that did not work. The settings, chart, font size does not affect the text box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I looked but really don't see the difference. QT and MT handle the text box almost the same way. MT has more options but the basics are the same. Can you please email support with your settings files and a picture of the MT chart, and if you have it, the QT chart that you are comparing to so we can see what you mean? For files: go to FILE / Export/Backup menu (from Dashboard or Portfolio)Select “To share with others” export file protection option on top rightLeave the checkboxes already checkedExport, then email me the exported file please.

jfritchey Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Jerry, Thanks for the fix. Text box eliminates trailing spaces and sizes perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
