Formatting Dimension Axis Text...

So I have a horizontal bar chart whose dimension (y axis labels) happens to be long strings of text. The issue is that I cannot wrap the text, so it gets cut off at random places. Any insight on how to fix this?

One option might be to modify the chart by visually moving/resizing elements. You can click on the chart and press the CTRL+SHIFT buttons to activate.

Can you post your Application with compressed Data.

I don't think a qvw is necessary. Unfortunately ctrl-shift does not allow me to resize my y axis labels.

My label looks like this: blabhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhal

and I need:

blablahbalbhalbha

balbhalbhalbhalbh

So it does not get chopped off

Try these Steps:

Go to Presentation> Text to Chart > Your Y-axis Label here eg. blabhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhalbhal> Edit> Angle(degrees) - 270> Alignment -Left

Also, see the Attachment.

Hope, this will work for you.

I think it is not possible...

Some what you can try like bellow, even it is not a proper solution

mid(Field_Name,1,10)&chr(13)&mid(Field_Name,11,20)
