Is it possible to left align columns in a column chart?

This might not be possible but if anyone has found a work around it would help loads.

 

I'm trying to create a column chart that is left aligned so that when it is affected by a slicer the columns line up with the matrix below.

This is the column chart and matrix unfiltered, the columns line up with the headings of the matrix underneath.

When I apply a filter for a specific year, the column is centred in the column chart and doesn't line up with the matrix.

 

I feel like it could be a really easy fix or just not possible at all, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

@James314 , I doubt we have control on that.

 

We can create a visual with independent table used in slicer,

Then you can have meausre like

 

if(Max([Year]), in values(Year[Year]) , [Meausre],0)

 

 

Or add +0 you measure to show all the years

[Measure] +0
