Urgent: displaying full string in chart Y axis

sayadutt — Sat, 23 Aug 2014 12:18:07 GMT

Hi Guys,

below is a portion of a chart. As you can see few entries are not correctly displayed, even though there are spaces. For example, 4th entry is only showing Áccutr' even though there are spaces on the left side to display the whole word.

Can you please suggest how I can display the whole word?

Go to the Properties window, Presentation tab and set the field left justified.

Hold down CTRL and SHIFT key and then click in the chart. You will see some red borders appear. Expand the left axis so more room is available for the labels

Hi Jonathan,

thanks for replying.

Our first suggestion is not working, as its a Chart

For the 2nd suggestion, even if I expand the y axis label to double the location space, still I am sseing exactly those 5 characters.

If you replace the dimension with a calculated dimension that has just the first 10 characters what happens exactly ?

left ( <YourYAxisDimension> , 10)

Also it would be helpful to get a sample too to test out...can you cut/paste the actual Y axis dimension values to this post ?
