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.

In boxes that are so big, I think this is a must! At least the position of the label and size.

2 + years and counting. This is a must have.

Please fix this defect and don't describe it as a feature.

This feature is so basic yet so necessary for many generic bar chart visualizations - hoping to see this added ASAP! Astounding it wasn't initially included.
