Column Chart, how increase distance between columns?

Hi all, 

 

I've got a column chart which displays N measures, nothing into x-axis: I'd like to increase the distance between the columns (they actually appear one beside the other) and, if possible, make them larger? 

 

Should I use an R-script to achieve my goal, or is there also another way?

 

Thanks a lot!

Hi @laciodrom_80,

 

Currently, this is not a supported format feature in Power BI. We can increase the thickness of the bar/column only by changing the size of the whole chart.

Well, you can inrease the width of the visual. Outside of that, probably R.

Thanks @Greg_Deckler, the issue (I've discovered it just now) is that when I publish into the web the report with an R-component...it isn't supported Smiley Frustrated
