Removing blank spaces

Hi,


I'm creating a clustered Colomn chart. However As can be seen in screenshot 1 there is a lot of blank space on the right an left. In screenshot 2 you can see that I have a filter on the country and there are multiple data in the Y-axis. How can I remove the white space so that the bars are spreaded over the full with?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous ,
Try to make Type as Continuous and make Range as auto.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can adjust the white space with "Minimum category width"  option available in Format -> Y Axis / X axis-> Minimum category with.

You just have to increase the value of minimum category width. 

I tried this on Clustered bar chart and its works for me.

Hi Pratyasha,


Thank you for your response but I can not find the "Minimum category width". See the screenshot attachedScreenshot.PNG

Hi @Anonymous ,
You can find Minimum category width     under Visual >Column >Spacing.

Hi @pratyashasamal 


I don't have that option??

Also I have multiple values on the Y-axis. Could that be a problem?

 

I have attached the dataset. 

Hi @Anonymous ,
Yes i think so , that might be the issue . I tested it will multiple column in Y axis and i am facing the same issue. And I am also unable to find any solution to it .
I would suggest to you may submit this idea in Power BI Ideas to help us improve Power BI. Thanks a lot!
