In most of the charts the X and Y Axis are hard to read because the font size is quite small specially when you have large scale of data

RE: Change font size for X-Axis and Y-Axis

I wanted to demo this to my BI team but unfortunately I cant do it because of this issue. one of the core part of the Power BI is visualisation, and if we cant see numbers properly there is no point in creating a visualisation. it is true in most organisation that most senior members have poor sight so they struggle to see the small numbers.

I can't convince management to use the Power BI charts I created for them because the font on the Y-Axis is too small to read. I created the same charts in Tableau and we'll be using Tableau for now.

Charts unusable without control of font size. It's too small to read. Will switch back to Tableau until this is fixed.

RE: Change font size for X-Axis and Y-Axis

Any word on when this is coming? This is definitely the biggest pain point I have with Power BI Charts.

RE: Change font size for X-Axis and Y-Axis

Power BI Team - I'm looking for this feature every month..... I don't understand why this feature isnt attracting more votes as its affecting legibility of charts. My manager literally squints and leans in to read the x-axis... surely this is getting your attention?

RE: Change font size for X-Axis and Y-Axis

Totally agree.. also it lacks a tool to control the alignment of the font
