I saw on older posts that there has been no way to determine angle of the X axis. Has this changed? I want mine to be at 45% degree

Hi @maziiw,
Currently power bi does not support rotating X-axis labels in line charts, like it does for column and bar charts which can auto adjust or can be customized.
This is a known limitation in the default line chart visual. I recommend submitting your detailed feedback and ideas through Microsoft's official feedback channels. Feedback submitted through these channels is frequently reviewed by the product teams and can contribute to meaningful improvements.

Hi maziiw,
It does work on Line Graph/chart as well. But I am not sure what you are asking for 😞
Can you please provide a sample pbix file with what you are looking for?
Or share some images for reference as well.
I am not sure why I can't see any images in the posts since from long time.
Best Regards,

HI @maruthisp , thanks for the answer, but it does not work on line graphs.
I have a graph here, the size of it and fornts have to stay to be consistent with other pages. And I would like the labels 2025-01 etc at the bottom to be diagonal and not horizontal.
The re is quite a lot of space there , and I don't want to resize it.
