Hi @db042190,

I don't think there is a direct way to rotate the textbox in Power BI currently. Here is a similar idea shared on Power BI Ideas forum. You can vote it up and add your comments there to improve Power BI on this feature.

In addition, follow is a workaround mentioned this thread. Could you go to check if it helps in your scenario. 

• I created a stacked bar chart
• Go to the format for the newly created bar chart
• Turn off all formatting options, EXCEPT for the "Y-Axis"
• Expand the Y-Axis formatting options
• Scroll down, or locate the "Axis title" property
• Input your text
• Set "Title text size" to an appropriate size.
• Set "Font family" to an appropriate font

Regards

not as much control as you'd like but ok for now.

looks impossible to make 2 of these look identical.

and lately when i open the report, my text doesnt show until i expand (by dragging right side) the chart and then squeeze it back down (by dragging it back left).
