Back the Excel 2003 era, there was John Walkenbach's "J-Walk Chart Tools" add-in offered as a free part of the paid "Power Utility Pak" utility.
It was the module "Chart Report" that "Produces a detailed report that documents a chart, or produces a report that documents all charts."

That doesn't seem to be available any more.
Is there some modern alternative that can do a report of existing charts, for the purpose of analyzing and documenting a charts design?
E.g., if one downloads someone else's chart, and wants to see how it works.
I would only need to be a read-only type of tool, for information only, with no need to modify anything.

So, what else is out there, in this modern era of Excel 2019 and Microsoft (Office) 365?
 
If anyone encounters problems with this new add-in, let me know, by email so you don't clutter the forum.

One early adopter reported problems with the chart report output. I could not replicate his problems, but I managed to crash Excel four times. I think it was something to do with his workbook, but who knows?
