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?

Pretty embarrassing for Microsoft not to have this basic function

I think basic features which exist in Excel must be in Power BI

The current width of the bars is too narrow - I need it to be as wide as possible. Vote it Up!

I can't adjust the width of bar. it should be mandatory.

I too would like to see this given a priority for reporting purposes. Voting it up!

I don't understand how Microsoft can say they are investing a lot into PowerBI but this functionality does not exist yet. This is the basic of the basic of the basic when it comes to reporting.

At times the spacing between bars on the charts impacts how much data you can show based on the names on x Axis. being able the shorten the space between bars would help.

Please Add this functionality - you can do it in all other Office products

RE: Resize bar width for a single bar

Please add this !! It looks horrible if there's only a couple of bars on the chart. I agree with Renco Lubbers, you should automatically determine the bar width based on the number of bars and the width of the chart.

Report hardly displays. No charts.
