XY graph size

Help me please!
I read 2D array from text file and display result on XY graph.
All is good, BUT... It is necessary to deduce result in different accuracy and different signatures of axes... If I change quantity of displayed signs the size of display area change to another 😞
If I fix it (through Property Node) the display area doesn't change, but the size of the object change to another...
How to get rid of this effect?

Thanks!

Is your problem that the graph plot area is changing with the width of the scale values?

If yes, for LV6.0 the following KnowledgeBase item may help:
Accounting for the Shifting Y Axis in Graphs and Charts.
Things changed from LV6.1 on.

In addition to Donald's comments, there is another possible solution : you can programmatically define the width of the Y scale, by playing with the digit number. As shown in the attached jpeg, you can decide of the overall number of digits, then read the max value of the Y axis and set programmaticaly the axis format.
In LV7, it is also possible to pad the scale labels with spaces, but I never could use this possibility programmatically.
