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
On April 1st 2024 the update from Administrator was that "We are working on this". I hope it is not April Fools!Because we REALLY need this basic, basic feature. I cannot believe it is not been developed yet, but I guess that's better late than never. Any idea when word wrap will be shipped?
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Dear microsoft team,it's disappointing that such basic feature is still not available in powerbi.its literally embarassing to tell client that we can't achieve text wrap on y-axis labels of bar chart.Please improve the basics features first
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
what about alignment in the Y-Axis, currently the text is aligned to the right, we need the option align to the text to the left
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
This seems to have been merged with legend wrapping. But it's not the labels that need wrapping on the legends - the entire legend list needs wrapping so you don't have to click and arrow to see it.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Up to 2030 votes now. When can we expect to see this feature released? Please prioritize this - clients are asking us to fix this on their deliverables and there's no answer we can provide except "it's a limitation of PowerBI."
