When Expandable is set to true in an Enhanced Chart, an Expand or Contract button displays in the upper right-hand corner of the chart when the cursor hovers over that area. Pressing the Expand button causes the chart to display in full screen, while pressing the Contract button causes the chart to reset to its original size and position.
If the Thumbnail property is True, when the Expand button is pressed the Thumbnail property changes to False. When set to False, the chart does not display with the optimized thumbnail settings, but instead displays with the user configured legend, axes, and other settings. When the Contract button is pressed, the Thumbnail property is set back to True, and the chart displays using the optimized thumbnail settings.
The hot keys 'E' and 'C' (upper and lower case) can also be used to Expand or Contract the chart when the chart is selected.
