cwebb has a post that shows you how to do dynamic titles

So you could do the X and a horizontal Y text. You cannot rotate the test though.

 

You could also try using Bookmarks and Selection visability if there are only a few options and select one with an image toggle.

Final option would be to use r which has lots of flexibility with charts

You can rotate the text now !

 

I got what you are looking for, Firstly your power bi desktop should have September'18 update.
Secondly, you must import "Text Enhancer by MAQ Software" visualization from marketplace.
Once, you are through with the second step, place your dynamic measure under field category, then go to its text settings and change it's direction to vertical !
Vola !
