Remove Horizontal Scroll Bars?

Is it possible to prevent Power BI adding horizontal scroll bars to a chart?  I really hate the scroll bars.  I want to put the items on the X axis and have them all visible - just like in Excel.

    Thanks for your reply.  What threw me was I was watching this video from sqldusty and at 29:40 min/sec into the video, I saw a chart that fit everything on the axis without a scroll bar.  I had never seen that before as all of mine are always impacted by a scroll bar.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TF4Hu-uaMg

     

    What I now understand is that when you select continuous axis, it DOES fit everything.  When you select categorical it adds a scroll bar (when there are "too many" data points).

     

    My problem is I am using Labels for my week dates in the format YYWW.  Now I know what I am looking for, I have swaped these labels to the week ending date and changed the chart to continuous - and now it works as I would like. :-)

If I use MonthNumber, finally I could see the "Type" option for X axis, however i run into the same problem that it doesn't allow me to change it to continuous. It always go back to categorical. Thus I still have the scroll bar problem.
