text font size

Would it be possible to have option to edit the text font size in desktop. also for text boxes, ability to wrap text would be great, as the scrollbar option can be unwieldy

Need Help

        Seems like the wrap text is missing from PBI Desktop..If you upload the file and edit the report in browser..when you click the text box it auto wraps text..You can go with that...but if you store it in onedrive or replace the file...it will convert again to unwrapped text box..

    Back in early Power BI Desktop (2015) the formatting options were very limited — font sizes and text wrapping weren’t available for all visuals/text boxes.

     

    Today (current Power BI Desktop):

    You can change font size for titles, labels, legends, headers, etc. via the Format pane.

    Text boxes now support font size, wrapping, alignment, background, and rich text editing.

     

    So yes — this feature was missing in 2015 but is fully supported in the modern Power BI Desktop
