HI @wherdzik,

AFAIK, current power bi does not support these. If you want them show with the same width, perhaps you can try to change the visual to percentage version, the data labels will convert from numeric to percent.
After these operations, these charts will display with similar layouts when the data labels have same percentage.

Hi @wherdzik ,

You can use a dummy measure which I think you already did in your fourth bar graph. Example:

Dummy = 1

This will give the same length for all bars. Use the correct measure as custom data label to show the correct value. Use the same correct  measure as a visual where it is not blank to hide bars that don't have  value depending on a slicer selection or cross-filtering.

Hi @wherdzik 

Unfortunately, we don't have the wanted functionality (included in graphs in the marketplace).

Alternatives :

EASY :
You can use a table with conditional formatting with bars :

Complex

If you want to try to create the graph yourself you can try using Charticulator / Deneb.
