    Hey pinoaino,

     

    the problem is that we have no solution here.

    Either there exists a custom visual on the market place that lets you configure the width or we have to live with that lack of functionality.

Hi,

 

According to your description, you can easily change its render by dragging it to left to shrink the visual, like this:

Hope this helps.

      Hello guys,

       

      v-gizhi-msft   resizing the chart would have the disadvantage that as soon as new values are added,  pinoaino would have to resize the chart again. If this is ok four you pinoaino this is your solution

       

      I can refer you to this idea and the hints given by the readers below. Maybe that helps.

       

      Please check it out and let us know.

       

      Please don't forget to give a 👍 and accept the post as solution. (If it helped 😏)
      Have a nice day!

        Thank you Josef for the link that let me tho ask the feature that I need.

         

        My problem still remain because I understand that I need a "MAXIMUM CATEGORY WIDTH" feature not implemented yet.
        When the result of a filter is of few column I still have huge columns, use the inner padding can work for few item filtered but when I have many colums the effect is to show a unpleasant scroll bar.
