D3 Y-axis text Copy/Paste to Excel - excel

I have a horizontal bar chart SVG element created from reading in a .CSV using D3.
The Y-axis contains ~200 "project" text labels next to each horizontal bar.
I would like the user to be able to select a block or all the projects on the Y-axis and copy and paste into excel.
Currently, when everything is copy-pasted into excel, all the labels just appear as one long string of text. Is there a way to add a hidden comma/new line to the label that will allow it to be pasted in excel?
This is my first question on here, sorry if this doesn't make sense.
I want the user be able to copy and paste these y-labels into Excel

Excel - Change bar graph to all same colour

I have a bar graph as seen below, I need to change the colour of all the bars to let's say green.
Currently the only way I have been able to find to do this is click each individual date and then the fill bucket green as excel doesn't allow you to CTRL + Click multiple elements. Is there a way to change the colour of all the bars shown in one go?
Worth mentioning I can not change the colours by creating a "values table" as the workbook is locked and I have to do this for several different graphs.
That's happening because you have created the chart using every date as an individual serie. I suggest to use the "Switch Row/Column" option and became all the dates as a unique serie, so all the bars will have the same color.
In the other hand if you need to keep the chart as you shown on the picture shared, is possible to change every bar at once but just using a VBA code.

Excel VBA to search a name in a range and update the value of adjacent cell

I am working on an Excel VBA in which so far I have created macros which update a line graph one value at a time. In this graph I am showing Rank as a label. I am stuck: in highlighting the label when there is a change in the Rank.
As you can see in the image, each point in the graph is plotted using the macro.
For each legend entry whenever the rank changes, the macro should highlight the data label in the graph

How to have content shown next to a table with hidden rows excel

I have a table with dropdowns that will hide certain rows. To the right of this table, I want to have some content, but can't do this as it will be hidden when these dropdowns are selected. I currently have the content to the bottom right of the sheet and have tried splitting the screen to have them both showing but this does not work either. Any ideas on how I can have the two showing side by side? Thanks!
I've gotten around this by using Text Boxes. After creating the text box, change the properties to "do not move or size".
In the picture below, there are two text boxes.
-- The first one is just static text that you copy/paste in there. This works fine as long as you have the same info displayed all the time.
-- The second one has the ability to be somewhat dynamic, where it references the contents of another cell. That cell can be anywhere (this sheet, another sheet, doesn't matter). So in this example...
Cell L1 formula: =TEXTJOIN(CHAR(10), TRUE,E1:E3)
Textbox formula: =Sheet4!L1
No matter how you filter/hide, those text boxes won't move.

Match chart legend entry formatting to source data in Excel

How do I get the format of the legend entries in an Excel 2013 chart to match the formatting of the cell the series name is from? My series title needs to be a mix of italics, subscripts, etc, but I don't know how to customize this label at all. I either need the format to carry over from the source cell or just to be able to override the legend entry.
Maybe not ideal, but it works. Just delete the legend label from your data source and then insert -> shape -> text box in its place that is formatted to your liking. Example image attached of what I think you wanted.
**Disclaimer: This chart in no way makes any sense.

How to extract each color bar and copy them in a table?

I made a diagram to show unique columns with several colors in each, as shown in the picture.
I have hundreds of that to make and I have no idea about how to do that.
I would like to know if it's possible to extract each color bar separately and copy them under "Icons". I am not sure if the word "extract" is the correct term, but I would like to display a raw-image of that color bar.
Maybe a formula?
I am able to use Office Excel and Libreoffice Calc.
Thank you so much.
These are instructions to do this manually, but this would be an ideal project to apply VBA and automate these tasks.
The idea is to create each category of stacked bar as its own individual chart, which can then be exported or copied to an image file.
This is based on the "spark lines" concept, which is small, eye-catching graphics embedded within the text of a document, as opposed to large graphics. MS added some sparklines functionality in recent versions of Office apps, and although MS "spark lines" doesn't support stacked bar chart type, the same thing can still be accomplished with a little work.
Step 1: Select one row of the data and do Insert Chart, stacked bar.
Step 2: Select data and Switch Rows & Columns.
Step 3: Delete the gridlines, axes, chart border, etc., .
Step 4: Expand the Plot Area so that it covers the entire Chart Area, and format the data series to 0% gap width.
Step 5: Apply your colors to each point in the series.
Step 6: Resize the chart to fit on a cell.
Finally now that you have created some ChartObjects you can manipulate them. ChartObjects can be Exported as image files, or copy/paste-special as images, bmp, or enhanced metafiles, etc.
