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.

Wrap Text on Treemap Power BI visual seems nothinr, but it impact a lot : only a few words are seen on each tile, whereas there is plenty of space for the most important items, that are the most significant.

Seems like a no-brainer in a chart, right!?

Surprised this isn't already a feature. Would be very helpful.
