How to align or rotate chart titles in Excel

Sometimes happens that the chart titles are not good visible. So we have to align or rotate them.

Alignment of title

You can change the alignment of titles in the Format menu.

1) Enter the Format menu. It can be Format Data Labels, Format chart title, Format Axis… It depends on the title you want to rotate.

How: Do right-click on the title >> select Format …

2) Select the Alignment

3) You can change Vertical alignment, Text direction and set Custom angle. Custom angle rotates the titles. The result can looks like this:
