Does anyone know the key-stroke to force a manual line break in a
chart data series title?

Thanks!

Justin,

I couldn't force the labels for the 'keys' or 'series' to break with any key combination I tried. Shift-Enter is
normally the one to use.

Sorry!

In older versions of PPT you could do this, but no longer.

Options:

- I think you can force line breaks in Excel charts. You might try creating
the chart in Excel and copy/paste-linking it to PPT.

- Create the chart w/o the data series title, then once the chart's the way you
want it, click off it to get back to PPT and add the title using a PPT text
box, where you can use Shift+Enter to force a linebreak
