Zoom slider fails to scroll barchart when axis bounds are not "auto"

In a horizontal cluster bar chart, I have set X axis lower bound to the miniumum value of the X axis measure, rather than forcing value to 0 or leaving it to "auto".

Now I try to zoom in X axis on the greatest values (on the right) but the visual keeps showing the wohle range of X values.

 

Say, my horizontal clustered bar chart shows 200 series / horizontal bars with values between 1000 and 1100. I set lower bound for X axis to 1000 (dynamically or hard-coded), and I want to zoom in values between 1089 and 1091, by moving zoom sliders. I expect the graph to shwo X values between these 2 bounds, but instead, it shows values between 1000 and 1091 : The graph still displays the forced X axis lower bound.

Which is probably not expected, as Axis bounds are her to remove useless zones for a more accurate global display, and zoom sliders are here to zoom into global display.

Hi  @DavidPROVOST 

 

What version of Desktop are you using for testing? Can you describe your operation steps and requirements in detail through screenshots or videos?

I'm using Windows 10 22H2 and May 2024 desktop version.

I move horizontal zoom slider.

The graphic does not scroll horizontally.

The slider tooltip does not show, and slider labels do not scroll either.

 

I could not reproduce this on a brand new report, zoom sliders usually work fine.

I noticed that unchecking the main "Data labels" (like not displaying anymore, title, values, detail on my barchart) fixes the issue but it is not acceptable.

So I tried to keep "Data labels" checked, and disable everyting below, for "All" and each of my 2 series. Issue is still there.

No issue when both Axis limits are auto.

If I set an upper limit to the X axis (whether measure or fixed number) the visual does not scroll at all with zoom slider.

If I set only a lower limit, only the right bound scrolls : the lower limit is always visible, causing the visual to shrink in width.

 

It looks like something silently breaks while computing visible boundaries when slider is moved.
