ChartArea Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word

Assembly:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll

Represents the chart area of a chart.

public interface class ChartArea

public interface ChartArea

type ChartArea = interface

Public Interface ChartArea

Attributes

GuidAttribute

Remarks

The chart area includes everything, including the plot area. However, the PlotArea object has its own formatting, so formatting the plot area does not format the chart area.

Use the ChartArea property to return the ChartArea object.
