Add word wrap to bar chart Y-Axis Labels

If you have long names on a bar chart Y-Axis they get truncated. This is a problem if you have ones that start with something similar. Could we have a word wrap option on the format menu that takes advantage of the vertical space so the whole label can be shown.

How is this still not available??? I can do it in Tableau, I should be able to do it in PowerBI.

I agree, please add the ability to Word Wrap Y-Axis Labels on Stacked Bar Charts. Otherwise the only way to read the labels is to hover the mouse pointer. I see that Stacked Column Charts automatically Word Wrap the X-Axis Labels. Why not do the same for Y-Axis Labels?

And/or allow the width of the labels to be expanded separately from just expanding the width of the whole visual.

'+1 badly needed, product is hobbled without the ability to display the full text of each item

Agreed, absolutely crucial. Would be good to combine that with the possibility to independently set label width.

The need for the word wrap formatting feature in a bar chart is extremely highly. A solution is very much appreciated.

Since 2016 no solution proposed for the Idea or issue for which fix is requested. Also let us know if there is any visual available which is similar to treemap with word wrap functionality.
