Configurable option of Units (Interval) for the axis in a graph. Now PowerBI automatically choices to units between values on the size of the graph and the data. As an example with a small graph and values ranging from minus -200 and +400 the unit PowerBI choices to use is 200. In this example data becomes hard to understand. If there is an option to set a unit on the axis, we could improve visibility if the automatic one doesn’t fill the needs. In the example we could set the unit of the y-axis to 50, this will increase the number of values on the y-axis.
Maybe the number of labels will increase on the y-axis and not enough space to put them. So I can imagine design team wants to make the label part dynamic? But the graph axis lines based on the value put.

RE: Axis with configurable units (/Interval)
Something so simple and overlooked; why is this still an issue after more than a year? What about Major and Minor gridlines and tickmarks, too?
RE: Axis with configurable units (/Interval)
Just voted. Indeed very frustrating!
RE: Axis with configurable units (/Interval)
Yes please. This is very frustrating for me. For example, I'd like to be able to have a histogram centered around 50% with a min value of 30% and max value of 70%, but I'm being forced into label intervals of 0.2 so when I set 0.3 as a min value, it forces it down to 0.2, which makes the entire chart imbalanced.
