Waffle chart data label size

Hello,

 

I am using a waffle chart but the data labels (under the % values) are too big so they are overlapping. Is there a way to adjust the font size? Or does it only rescale as you adjust the size of the whole graph?

 

Any assistance would be appreciated!

Hi TJN,

 

In format panel, you can click Title-> Text size to change the text size. Check if it can work as you expected.

Hi Jimmy Tao,

 

Thank you for your response! Yes that changes the title size but the data labels are unaffected. 

Hi TJN,

 

I'm afraid it has not been supported in this chart, you can contact with author for further improvement: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/visual-awesomeness-unlocked-waffle-chart/.

Same Issue 6 years later.

 

edit: Just realized "contact author" means it was created by a independant user, meaning it may never be updated.

Having the same issue. 2 years later. Thats very dissapointing
