How to increase the bar width and decrease the white space?

Nayababbasi91_0-1729258039126.png

Hi, I'm trying to increase the bar width of my clustered column chart. I've already tried adjusting the column formatting, layout, and the spacing between categories and series. Additionally, I've decreased the padding in the properties settings. Is there another way to reduce the white space and increase the bar width?

 

Many Thanks

Hello @Nayababbasi91 

 

you need to go under formatting options -> bars -> layout

 and decrease space between categories

Please share a simplified version of your PBIX file (in English) without sensitive data. You can upload it to a public cloud service like OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox and share the link. This will help in understanding your data structure and the issue, allowing for more precise guidance.

Thanks, Gabry. I tried to reduce the spacing, but I'm still having no luck. The Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 measures calculate quarterly volumes.

Could you load your sample pbix? I'll take a look
