If you click in the Chart Area, there are properties for CustomInnerPlotPosition
. Within these properties, set Enabled
to true and try adjusting the Height
to your needs. These properties control where the inner chart area should start and how much space it should take up, as percentages of the whole chart.
However, it seems that the label fitting does not take these properties into account. If your labels keep the same font size etc. you may find that part of them expand off the chart's edges. You may need to adjust some other settings too, or use shortened labels, but the CustomInnerPlotPosition
properties should help get the result you want.
