    The primary axis are outdated and require significant improvement when compared to Excel. This makes it difficult for report creators and often leads to problems when trying to manage and style them effectively. By offering more format settings, greater control over displayed data can be provided, especially if axis ticks, new gridlines, and separators are also included.

    Seriously guys....this is basic. My boss looked at my report today...two bar charts side by side, and the first thing she said was can you change the scale interval because it causes the two scenarios to look similar when they are definitely not. Sure I can use Excel...but...um...hello???

    As powerful as Power BI is, I am disappointed that the simple adjustments to the X and Y axis are unavailable. What's the point of Power BI if you have to do the visualization in another software and copy it in? Developers need to step out of there box and get in ours.

    It is crazy that this extremely basic functionality is not available, regardless of the fact this issue was raised in 2016!

    It is the basic issues like this that make people nervous about using Power BI over traditional tools.

    Can we combine this request/votes with the below and get this issue sorted ASAP, please?
