Microsoft has had some sort of Office applications built in within its Windows based platform for the phone since its inception. The earliest phone operating systems from Microsoft have had Outlook integration built in seamlessly — but other apps like mobile versions of Word and Excel have also been available since a long time. The mobile version of PowerPoint was included for the first time as part of the Windows Mobile 5.0 operating system released in May 2005 — that version was primarily a PowerPoint viewer with no editing capabilities.

Did you happen to see a chart that spoke of fruit exports and each column of the chart was filled with pictures of a particular fruit type rather than the conventional solid color fills or geometric patterns? For instance, if you wanted to show how the export of grapes has increased over the years, your column chart would have all columns filled with pictures of grapes stacked one over the other? The good thing is that PowerPoint 2007 allows you to do just that within your charts — as long as you know which options you need to change — and that’s explained in this tutorial!

Comments Off on Learn PowerPoint 2007 for Windows: Picture Fills for Chart Data Series
The significance of any chart lies in its ability to visually represent complex data as a trend that an audience can easily grasp. So if you create a complex chart with too much detail, you might be ironically creating confusion out of simplicity — even if you are not aware that you are doing this! One of the easiest ways in which you can make your chart look simpler and less intimidating is by using fewer major units in the Y axis — and if that sounds like something that’s difficult for you to understand, then stop worrying and start following this easy tutorial.

Although charts are a visual medium, they still contain plenty of text in the form of data labels, titles, legend, axis labels, etc. And while PowerPoint 2007 does make it simpler to access text formatting options than in previous PowerPoint versions, there’s still some learning involved. That sort of learning is exactly what this tutorial aims to provide.
