Cropping Imported Excel Chart

Once I have imported an Excel file into a Powerpoint presentation, how do I then crop the chart to only show certain cells? I have tried to select the 'crop' button from the formatting menu however it isnt highlighted to be able to click on.

RE: Cropping Imported Excel Chart

Hi Tonja

Thank you for your question.

Can you please reply to this to let me know how you are bringing the Excel data across (e.g. using the Import menu or copy and paste)? And is it just an Excel chart or is it an Excel chart and data that you are bringing through?

If you are able to clarify this for me then I can better answer your question.

thanks
Amanda

Powerpoint tip:

Showing all menu items

If you go into a pull down menu you usally find that you get a selection of items(this is the default) or sometimes everything. If you only get a selectiopn you have to go to the double arrows at the bottom of the menu and click it to get all of the hidden items.
To turn this off so that you always get everything, go to Tools / Customize / Options Tab / "Always show full menus". Make sure there is a tick in the box and you will always have every item.
