Change the title of visualisations when using Power Bi trial version

I am using the trial version and would like to change the title of the visualisations. I have a stacked column chart, tree map, area chart etc in the Report View. In MS Excel when one clicks on the title, the title text box is enabled for editing. Graph titles are long. Want to shorten them. Failing to do this in Power BI. Please assist.

Good day bongielondy,

To override Power BI's auto-generated title, open the formatting pane for the visual. Under "Title" you can enter the text you wish for the title (or, via fx you can drive the title from a DAX expression).

 

If you wish to have an editing experience closer to Excel you can enable the preview feature "On-object editing", described here.

Hope this helps.
