Also note the "record" button at the top which lets you record and
subsequently replay your changes. Look at the content of the resulting file
with a text editor to get a grip on the options that were affected...

Betreff: Re: AW: st: line spacing in legend subtitle

Thank you so much Marteen and Martin for these very helpful suggestions.
I had never used graph editor and knowing how to accordingly change my 
code is also very helpful so I don't have to do it manually each time.
Very much appreciated!
