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
it's great to have this available for a visualisation title, but that just doesn't help for chart labels where you are likely to have a long axis label. this should be a relatively simple fix for standard visualisations and needs to be available in both desktop, embedded and web app.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
Would be very helpful and a good way to use the space in this visual and would in general present itself better with this option since we cannot control if the tiles expand vertically or horizontally.

Very nice to have ...

Gets my vote.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
It's unfortunate because it is such an eye-grabbing visual but the labeling almost never works. The logic behind where the visual splits the data (x or y axis) should prioritize showing all labels.
RE: Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels
I am in the process of replacing Tableau with Power BI, but because of non-availability of word wrap feature, I can't satisfy my users, hence the process is held up. Kindly provide this feature asap.
