Solved: Re: y axis in bar chart not visible

Anonymous · ‎10-13-2017

Hi!

I try to make a nice barchart but it looks horrible in so many ways:

- I cannot see the full name of my categories on the y axis

- Whatever position for data labels I use, they are never really good visible.

Who knows how to fix this? Or has a better custom visual?

@Anonymous,

Then add a calculated column to make it shorter. You may also vote this idea up.

Try increasing the size of the chart to view full text. Regarding the data labels, change the position to "Outside End". Please share PBIX file if still not working.
