Resizing trendline title in legend
 

G'day,

Im having trouble resizing the legend from 3 lines to 1. I have used a
scatter chart and then Add TrendlineMoving average. The legend that
is auto-generated is

"10 per. Mov. Avg. (PROJECTED
INITIAL
YELD"


The title is broken up into 3 lines as above, and no matter how much I
resize or how much big I make the legend area or how small the font,
it INSISTS on using 3 lines.

Because the title is auto-generated (10 per. Mov. Avg.....) there is
nowhere where I can actually edit the title eg make it shorter, or
remove the alt-enter line breaks (if thats what it is). The legend
title does not appear in chart optionlegend label or axis-labels. It
doesnt appear anywhere except on the graph in the legend.

And the whole title should definitely fit on one line because there is
plenty of space and Ive seen it on another graph but cant replicate
it.


Your help is much appreciated,
