Left align headers on bar charts

Hello all, 

 

Hopefully an easy one.... although not for me, clearly. 

 

Could someone tell me how to left align column headers on bar charts, like the below image;

I can only seem to have it right aligned on my viz and can't find where to change it.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Hundoa ,

From my research , your requirement could not be reached currently .

But this is at idea/feedback level alone. May be , hopes Power Bi will implement this in nearby future.

If you also want this in power bi, let the power bi community to know this things and give your votes at power bi site's feedback - https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=45676378-0a2c-4194-ad09-a3db46aea10a

 

As a workaround, you may change the Option under Y axis to "Right" as shown below:

Hi @Hundoa ,

 

I don't think that is possible to do. What you can do is use Holrizontal Bar Chart custom visual. There you will see the y-axis elements left aligned. For example shown below:
