Card Word Wrap issue

Hello, I managed to build a metric with text in a card, but resulted too long and when applying Word Wrap it doesn't appear to be working. My card shows like this:

Also finding this now, still with no fix.

 

There is no logic to this - If Text wrap is avilable for the value, sense would dictate that it is avail;able for the label as well... If using this for numeric values likelihood is your label will be bigger than the value and you would want to wrap. On the flip-side if using this for text  values yo would need it there also. Can you not just make it work and add the option to both?

 

Something I'm finding more as I go into PowerBI is that you've thought of all the complex things and none of the basics. Some visuals have options and others just seem to be half finished and not thought through. Even standard issue Microsoft fonts aren't available after how many years? Why would you not take all the basic features you have refined over 20+ years of MS Office such as formating options or Windows font library and apply them here?

    Just ran into this as well, extremely annoying. The word wrap option should be available for all labels/titles!

      I know - it physically hurts me when this stuff is overlooked ğŸ˜–. Got a simple work around going by removing the label entirely and mashing a textbox underneath but it isn't the prettiest in terms of spacing/padding... Lucky I don't need a dynamic label.
