Last column getting cut off in dashboard Matrix

I have created a very simple matrix tile that displays AR values (screenshots linked).  The tile in the report looks fine, but when the tile is pinned to a dashboard the last column is cut off.  Changing the size of the browser or tile has no effect -- the value is always cut off.  Not sure how to fix this.

Couple things that you can try. 1. Try making the font smaller in the paintbrush area 2. Switch to a visual like the multi-row card You could also go to support.powerbi.com and submit a bug report using Contact Us link.

Have you tried increasing / widening the column in question in your Report? 

 

Even though you see it ok in the report?

 

EDIT: Looking at your pics may try making other columns smaller

 

EDIT2: But the behavior of tiles is a bit unpredictable.

I avoid adding tables/matrices with many columns for this reason.

if you really need to highlight all numbers you may have to show with cards or somehow split up the info

I tried disabling the auto-sizing and making columns bigger/smaller and it had no effect.  It seems once the tile hits the dashboard it resets much of the column sizing selections.

 

Using a card does work, technically, but the visual represenation is a little more confusing than just a straight table or matrix.  

What about multiple single cards, arranged so that they look like a table? 🙂

Thought of that @Greg_Deckler, but unless I'm mistaken the dashboard tiles have a minimum size that is quite large.  That would be one big "table" for such a small amount of data. Smiley Happy

As an alternative, if you can't get the matrix working, you might try a multi-row card or a table instead to show this data.

I changed to a table - except for the fact that column headers are now left-aligned and it doesn't look as clean, it no longer cuts off the last value.

 

Although I don't think this is the best option, it'll do for now.  Thanks!
