I've been looking at adding a custom column in a table which would use SVG to produce a visual. The ideal shape for this is no taller than the text, but quite wide.


It seems that Power BI insists on allocating a square-shaped piece of space for the image to fit in. This means that when the visual is sized to the correct width, the allocated vertical space is wasted, and makes the rows much too tall.


If I could set the correct width along with the height, this would solve my problem as the generated visual would always be the same (very not square) width and height. Power BI could allocate only the specified space.
