Using text fields to label elements in a chart in DeltaGraph.
Q. I have a chart and want to label some elements in it with text of my choosing. I've made the labels and put them on the chart where I want them, but if I move the chart, the labels don't move with it. How can I keep this from happening?

A. Once you have your chart set with the labels in their desired location, select the chart, hold down the Shift key (Control key on Windows) and select the text box(es). Then choose Draw->Group (Format->Grouping->Group on Windows). You may now move your chart and the text should maintain its position in relation to the other graph elements. Use caution if you then change the aspect ratio(the shape) of the chart, as the text box(es) will also change and that will affect text wrapping in each box and possibly the perceived position of the text object.
