Hi @powerbiexpert22 
Unfortunately no, but if you'll use date/ numerical format for X axis + categorical type , there is a zoom slider that you can use:

PBIX with the example is attached.

Please note that long axes are generally ineffective for data visualization, to say the least, because our short-term memory is extremely limited, lasting mere seconds. This implies that once something disappears from our field of view, we no longer recall it. Therefore, the number of points on the X-axis should be determined by what can be perceived without scrolling the screen.

If this post helps, please consider Accepting it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

Hi @powerbiexpert22 

The option to attach files is only available to Super Users and forum staff.

Before I received the Super User designation, I saved the files in Google Drive and simply shared them using a link.
