Is there a way to adjust the X Axis in Bar Reports?

Cammi Dawn · ‎01-13-2022

I have a number of Bar Graphs but my boss doesn't like the X axis being at an angle. Is there a way to alter the X axis to be straight and/or make the words go longer?

Hello

Set the property glide.chart.truncate.x_axis_labels to false in order to show the complete name in the X-axis labels of a report

Hello Cammi,

That is just the OOB behaviour as if the names were shorter it will be shown in straight line

But as the names get longer to compensate for that Servicenow slants the name show the labels in the tilted format

Hello -

Disregard my previous question, as I figured out I had to resize my report widget on the dashboard and then more of the X-axis names appeared.

Thanks,

Roberta

Hello @Saurav -

We were having the same issue. I tried what you suggested and the report now looks OK, as the following screenshot shows:

However, when I add that report to a dashboard, it is still truncated, as the following screen shows. Anyway to avoid that?
