Font Size for Date on the Axis of Microsoft Power BI Gantt Chart

I am struggling with a problem and have searched and searched to no avail. I am using the Microsoft Gantt Chart for Power BI and have set the font size for everything (category labels, title/subtitle, legend, slicers, etc.) EXCEPT the dates that appear at the top of the gantt chart.  I can't figure out where to set that font size.  Can anyone help me please?

Hi @Kelly_Ryan,

Unfortunately, the standard Microsoft Gantt visual doesn't currently allow you to change the font size of the date axis (timeline headers) it's hardcoded, which is why you can't find the setting even though it exists for everything else.

The only real workaround is to switch to a different visual. Gantt Chart by MAQ Software (certified) is a good alternative that generally offer much better control over those formatting details.

If this answers your question, please mark it as the Solution and give it a Kudos!

Thank you for your answer, I was afraid that would be the case.  I am researching other options.
