Labelling of bar chart x-axis labels in full

Hi there

I am having trouble creating a stacked bar chart that displays my x-axis labels in full. It seems that after 10 character spaces, the name is truncated and '...' is added at the end of the name. See below example.

Changing font size of axis labels has no effect.

I first thought this may be a limitation of Pro's great charting functionality but then I saw a bar chart that Flora Vale had created for a Dev Summit tech workshop last year, while discussing Pro's charting functionality, where the x-axis label's were displayed in full. See below screengrab from that presentation on charts where District of Columbia is 20 characters long.

So I suspect it is possible and I would like to improve may bar chart before sharing it. I would therefore appreciate any advice or pointers from anyone that may have encountered a similar problem in the past. I have already checked out all the relevant help docs before writing.

Just in case you weren't subscribed, exciting to see that this will be fixed in Pro 2.5. So look for that when it releases in Q1 2020.
