PowerBI Card (New) visual truncating reference label titles.

I'm trying to achieve the following design with the card (new) visual:

And I feel like I am quite close with the below using the Card (New) visual:

Reference labsls: below callout

Reference Labels - > Arrangment: Rows, Style: Tabular

 



However, when I try to position the 'Value' and 'Detail' elements flush to the right hand side, and reduce the width of the card, I end up with truncated text on the reference labels:

'Value Area' set to 0% stops the text truncating, but pushes 'Value' and 'Detail' into the middle of the card:

Sentence style works with no truncating but loses the alignment from the design:

What I'm really looking to do is just left align the label title, and right align the value and detail. 

 

Has anyone come across a solution for this?
Thanks!

Hi @marcm92 ,

This is a limitation in Power BI when formatting a card with reference labels enabled.

As you can see, when the detail option is turned off, it works perfectly. However, when it's turned on, an automatic padding is added to the right, and we have no control over it.

This card was likely created using a custom visual or the HTML Content visual.
