Add ability to rotate labels in Charts

PPoudel — Thu, 15 Jun 2023 14:42:42 GMT

I was working on an Insights report when I noticed that labels on the column charts only auto-rotate if more than 5 columns are present. Therefore, if your column names are long and if you have 5 columns or less, the labels overlap.

However, if you have more than 5 columns, the labels auto rotate and shorten, making the charts look much cleaner

It would be great if we had more control over the chart labels to make sure that they look clean and work with our data

Hi @PPoudel,

Thanks for this recommendation. We'll add it to our internal idea discussions.

Sorry the labels are so cluttered for you. 😞

This should have nothing to do with the number of columns. The change should happen automatically when the text does not fit.

If this is still an issue in latest release and you can kindly provide us with an example, we can investigate this as a bug.
