    Hi marckmanga 

    Unfortunately, we don't have the option to define the Y-axis/ data series padding settings.

    But when you use an X-axis value of the type number/date, you can change the axis type from categorical to continuous. Then the location will be automatically adjusted.

    It is also important to note that from the perspective of effective data visualization, it is preferable not to display both the Y-axis and the values ​​at the ends of the lines.

    This is unnecessary pixels for the user to read - "noise"

    I recommend considering choosing either:

    1. Axis (+ continuous grid lines instead of dotted lines for support) - in my opinion, preferable

    Or

    2. Only labels, no Y-axis

    The pbix with the examples is attached
