If you have long names on a bar chart Y-Axis they get truncated. This is a problem if you have ones that start with something similar. Could we have a word wrap option on the format menu that takes advantage of the vertical space so the whole label can be shown.

RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
The treemap in Power BI is an axcellent tool to display the greatest data in my reports, usually I use this visualization to show a Top N.
But many times we use the hraphs and dashboard for PPT's and is not very useful due to the text is not full displayed until the pointer is placed in the square, so a screenshot is not very useful for a PPT summary or other tools.
It would be excellent if treemap could have an option to wrap text just like in the cells of excel.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Crazy this has been an ask for over 4 years and not made its way into dev. Major headache when trying to present data to have no wrapping functionality for axis labels
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Please add this basic functionality. It's very frustrating in case there are long labels.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
This is the number one ask I get about the dashboards I create for users: "Can we wrap y-axis label". It's always a fun conversation to explain someone that this feature present in older reporting tools isn't present.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Pls add this function to other charts too if possible...
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
I cant believe this does not have more votes! word wrapping for category in cards is a MUST!

RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
this would be so helpful. I have to make my visuals so huge or font so small to view it all, which seems silly because there is so much empty space.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Please, please, please. this would help so much with individuals with long names or demographic categories with complexity that needs to be clearly identified.
