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
There are at least another 4 ideas submitted regarding the same word wrap request for tree maps and other charts. The combined total of votes for this request is actually up to 50+ votes. Can the priority of this request be escalated please. Also, would be good if it was possible to link ideas together to combine votes in the Ideas Forum. Issue at the moment is that there are multiple ideas for the same issue that have been submitted with votes spread out across all of the ideas so there is not an accurate reflection of the total amount of votes an idea has.

This drives me mad. My stakeholders are constantly wanting this, the alternative is to create a lookup table with truncated values which is messy and a pain in the arse.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
craaaaaazy this has been an issue since 2017. PowerBI's core function is a data visualisation tool; if i can't see the categories / labels in my axis what's the point??
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
How is this still not a feature?! Been up since 2017.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Such a basic feature and it's still not available? :(
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.
