[clug-talk] books and programming

[Michael Walters]

Hello Nick W.,

The features I would like to see include the easy ability to completely remove 
shading from a chart, the ability to put complex labels and titles on a chart 
which is automatically sized to fit in the chart without either clobbering 
some other output or being clobbered itself.

Right now if I make a title too long part of it gets cut off.

Regards,

Michael
