python-pptx - How to increase line chart area

I am trying to see if we can increase the chart area of a line chart created using python-pptx

Referring to the below sample, I am trying to see how can I increase the width of the line chart

chart_data = ChartData()
chart_data.categories = ['Q1 Sales', 'Q2 Sales', 'Q3 Sales']
chart_data.add_series('West',    (32.2, 28.4, 34.7))
chart_data.add_series('East',    (24.3, 30.6, 20.2))
chart_data.add_series('Midwest', (20.4, 18.3, 26.2))

x, y, cx, cy = Inches(2), Inches(2), Inches(6), Inches(4.5)
chart = slide.shapes.add_chart(
XL_CHART_TYPE.LINE, x, y, cx, cy, chart_data
).chart

chart.has_legend = True
chart.legend.include_in_layout = False
chart.series[0].smooth = True

I have tried prs.slide_width = Mm(500) method but it increases all slides in the file.

I am trying to see if only a specific line chart width can be increased. Thanks

The cx and cy values in your example control the size of the final chart. Just make those bigger. You may also want to change the values of x and y as necessary to position the chart to your liking.
