Is it possible to make a single bar in a stacked chart wider than they appear by default?
It takes more space in a chart, to increase a bar, need to increase a size of whole chart then only it is visible.
Can we get a option to increase the width of a single bar stacked chart?

Unfortunately, this is not done yet. The functionality implemented in April 2020 allows the user to control the width of all bars. What we would like to see is the possibility to choose a single bar and manipulate its width. Fingers crossed this is introduced soon.

This seems to have been done. See https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/16737364-allow-configurable-gap-width-between-columns-bars

It's crazy that this is not a feature. We get a lot of blank space, and it makes it harder to show the numbers as well, as they disappear or have to be with very small font size.

Come on, how is this not a thing Microsoft? We are not allowed to use Tableau, but you sure are making it difficult for me to integrate PowerBI in my work because of all the limitations!
