Whole name of category inside the squares in Treemap

Hello,

How could one possibly include the the whole name of the category in each square of a PowerBI Treemap? When this name is too large, part of it gets hidden with the three dots(...)
How could I get a visualization like this, with the whole names displayed in the squares?image (2).png?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can change the text size under the Category labels in the Format tab. But whether the whole name can be seen depends on the length of category name, as the text size value must be greater than or equal to 8.

I don't understand why we can't just have an option to wrap the category text? This is a pretty basic UI requirement and something that's been implemented elsewhere.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Treemap visual is tricky one to handle when a categorical distribution displayed on it is very small but the name of the category is long.

 

The only way I can think of achieving this is:

  1. Try re-sizing your Treemap visual on the report page. May be make it bigger.
  2. Try to play with the Data Label sizes on the Treemap visual

But yes there is no guarantee you can fit the long category names in the small square distribution shown on the visual for that category.

 

Thanks,

Pragati
