Why do bar charts not automatically resize charts?

Hello, I was curious as to why bar charts in Qlik Sense do not resize to fill up the chart space? barChart.PNG

This seems like it would be an obvious feature, that or giving the user the ability to set the bar widths and distances. Has there been any word if/when something like this might be implemented?

@Anil_Babu_Samineni  and @dselgo_eidex  you both are correct.

 

This space on the right of the chart is the size of the object selected for you when designing the dashboard. This behavior you are observing is the expected for Qlik Sense objects.
If we had all objects resizing in selections, we could have disorganized apps after selections were made, since all the sizes pre-defined would change based on selections.

 

I went ahead and created a idea* to my development team in order to inform them that you are looking for this feature.

You can set max range to a high number or use a expression to set that value.
Doing it the values will not be affected with a selection.

@Wlad_Masi  I don't think, If we have object width is high. As far  know, It works based up on the value dimension not the object width. Correct me, If i am wrong.

@Wlad_Masi That can solve for the amount of space above the bars, but I am more concerned with the amount of empty space to the right of the bars.
