Nice!

First remarks:
-Automatic font scaling of the axis and legend should be turned off by default
-I used ChartTamerSetup.msi to install Charttamer because I don’t have admin right at work. Seems to work perfect.

As I have been playing with the Chart Tamer two things of note.

1. Changing the position of white within the color palette caused pain in some worksheets as people had set the worksheet cells and/or chart backgrounds to white instead of leaving them as automatic. If white was either returned to its original position or if the colors of all objects that are white were changed when applying the Chart Tamer color set it would be EXTREMELY helpful and save a lot of pain.

2. When applying axis labels and using the custom format to shrink the significant digits, Chart Tamer does not scale to billions. Chart Cleaner from Juice does this but not Chart Tamer.
Example:
1,000,000 –> 1,000 K
Chart Cleaner
1,000,000,000 –> 1,000 MM
Chart Tamer
1,000,000,000 –> 1,000,000 K

Chart Tamer should be able to make that distinction.

Grant,

Thanks lot for the good feedback.
We will address the color position issue with the next service release. Most probably we will also add support for scaling to billions.
