Can you reduce the space between the Y Axis and the first Bar ? Cannot see anything obvious

Hello @v-jayw-msft 

 

I'm impressed about the amount of chart features that have been lost between Excel & Power BI, even years after the first version of Power BI.

Here's another example (among others):

Solved: visual title at bottom - Microsoft Fabric Community

What is the idea of Microsoft? Is it to make people buy add-ons (I can understand that)? Or is there a real will to enable the same level of customization we had in Excel (without the excessive tinkering)?

@carlol , I doubt there is blank value, This may be because axis column (table) do no have all matching values with the measure/value column

 

Filter the blank from visual level filter and check

Microsoft Fabric Series 60+ Videos YouTube
Microsoft Fabric Hindi End to End YouTube

It is a very simple chart , Country: Italy , france with 2 values illustrated in Minutes

*it is filtered by these 2 Countries , seems to cause the spacing, positons the Countries  in the centre of the X axis 

 

Appears to be a default spacing by the chart control we have no control over (clustered Column chart), No inner padding between the Y axis and the first illustrated Bar
