Hi Jarek,

1.What is the actual difference between resize modes for charts \"FILL\" and \"PROPORTIONAL\"? I can't figure that out. Filling is always proportional in the strict sense, so PROPORTIONAL is proportional to what?

2. The checkbox in chart properties \"adjust margins to scale\" is not working as I think it should work.
What I expect is that it resizes a chart's margins by the same resize factors applied to charts height and width. So if a margin is 20% of chart height before resize, it is also 20% of chart height after resize.
What the option actually does is hard to figure. I just tried with a bargraph and it leaves the margins the same absolute size as before resize, except the lower margin which disappers completely. How is this option supposed to work? Is it actually doing this?

I hope the present intensity of inquiries doesn't overload you. We're in fact preparing the next release at high pace, that's why.

1. Proportional to the original size of the chart. Which means that both vertical and horizontal resize ratio is the same.

2. No, this is not a percent. That is the size of the widest axis description. So if after resize the font is the same, then the margin should remain about the same. The main purpose of this option is to optimize the space used by the axis description.
