There is no option to format the text in the category label. I would like some basic abilities for text manipulation on display like:

Word Wrap
Size of Text
Color of Text
Position (both vertical and horizontal)

If possible I would also love an option to have the text auto format based on the size of the box

RE: Treemap Label Modification

In boxes that are so big, I think this is a must! At least the position of the label and size.

RE: Treemap Label Modification

It's unfortunate because it is such an eye-grabbing visual but the labeling almost never works. The logic behind where the visual splits the data (x or y axis) should prioritize showing all labels.

RE: Treemap Label Modification

Yes please - it seems insane that treemaps take so much space, yet there's not enough space in most instances because text doesn't wrap.

Please fix!!!

RE: Treemap Label Modification

Since 2016 no solution proposed for the Idea or issue for which fix is requested. Also let us know if there is any visual available which is similar to treemap with word wrap functionality.

Option to concatenate Data labels to Category labels.

RE: Treemap Label Modification

Size of text in treemap is a must! Waiting for that one :-)

RE: Treemap Label Modification

This would be a great idea, as you could create some nice designs if you have control over fonts size and word wrap at least.

RE: Treemap Label Modification

It's currently very difficult to read certain treemap details due to the tiny font size. Formatting options would be great! I would use treemap more often.
