TickLabels.Offset property (PowerPoint)

  • Article

Returns or sets the distance between the levels of labels, and the distance between the first level and the axis line. Read/write Long.

Syntax

expression.Offset

expression A variable that represents a 'TickLabels' object.

Remarks

Example

Note

Although the following code applies to Microsoft Word, you can readily modify it to apply to PowerPoint.

The following example sets the label spacing of the category axis for the first chart in the active document to twice the current setting, if the offset is less than 500.

With ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1)

    If .HasChart Then

        With .Chart.Axes(xlCategory).TickLabels

            If .Offset < 500 then

                .Offset = .Offset * 2

            End If

        End With

    End If

End With
