    Question Pagebreak Chart?

    Hi,

    I have a Work Break Down (WBS) chart. Is there a way to page-break it the chart at desired locations?

    Thanks

    View the file in page preview and insert page breaks where you need them.

    Hi Teylyn,

    Not sure if this makes a difference, but I have a graphical Gantt chart & at the moment, I don't see an option to insert page breaks, even if the data is being pulled from another worksheet with multiple pages breaks on it.

    I attached an example for reference.

    Thanks

    AFAIK, you can't have page breaks in a chart. A chart is one graphical object.

    You could place the chart in a regular worksheet and set pagebreaks in the pertinent cells of the worksheet.

    Hi Teylyn,

    What's AFAIK?

    As for having a graphical chart, that's what I kind of figured. I was hoping to use this format because it gives a cleaner images when the data not too squished.


    As for doing this:
    "You could place the chart in a regular worksheet and set pagebreaks in the pertinent cells of the worksheet"


    I did put the graphical chart, had my page breaks in my WBS, but that didn't work. Were you suggesting something else?

    It appears that I have to make a cell-type Gantt with conditional formats to get my Planned vs. Actual bars & to have page breakds where ever desired. A bit more work, but it's doable.

    Thanks

    See attached file. A chart on a sheet. Page breaks manually adjusted. the chart is split among the pages.

    Hmm?

    The page break for a graphical chart does work after all. However, it's still looks like crap with a Gantt chart when trying to display all the tasks. I was hoping it would provide a "cleaner" view, but there seems to be no options for this.

    Thanks for the assistance.
