Widening bar chart width
Hi, I have tried to look at other posts for the solution but none of them seem to work for me. Please see the bar chart image. I tried going to the x-axis to adjust the width and height but no matter what number I increase it to, nothing happens. This seems to be a huge PBI limitation, no? FYI, each of these bars represent the same metric but for different individuals. Thank you!

Hi Anonymous ,
Would you please try to use the options in the X-axis:
Minimum category width lets you force the bars to be wider, enabling more readable data labels (but more scrolling).
Maximum size lets you increase the percentage of the visual the axis labels will take up, which can make the visual more readable if the labels are long.
And finally inner padding controls the gap between the bars in proportion to the bar size.
If it doesn't work , report this as an Issue using issues.powerbi.com. first check to see if it has already been reported. Please also refer to https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/16737364-allow-configurable-gap-width-between-columns-bars
