Stacked Bar Chart - Y axis Label
Can someone help with the above stacked bar chart , im not able to make the y axis label to show fully visible
this is all the setting i have applied to make its visible but still could not do.
Unfortunately, this is not currently possible in Power BI. The Power BI team is working on it see:

In a stacked bar chart, the Y-axis is the category axis. Microsoft’s formatting options for the Y-axis cover things like font, display units, range, and intervals, but there isn’t a setting to manually increase the label area width or force word wrap for long category labels. Also, for categorical axes, Power BI only shows labels as space allows. So if you already tried the available format settings and the text is still cut off, that is most you could do.
To get what you need, you simply need to make the visual wider.
If you mean by fully visible, to display the label without unit formatting, change the display units to none
