Bar Chart - Text Wrap Category Label
I keep seeing documentation (SSRS 2008) that states you can wrap the text of a category label. However, I have not been able to find this attribute. I tried writing some custom code that inserts a VbCrLf into the label, but the graph displays
the labels with an elipsis where the carriage return would appear. I have some long label names that really need to be split. Thanks.

I have same issue where category label will not wrap. It's a bar chart with long labels on Y-axis. I have seen post like this where it says in SSRS 2008, number of characters could be specified for the labels but I haven't been able to find this attribute.

I have tried Axis Properties->LabelsAutoFit =disabled, Labels Angle = 0. This has not effect neither on wrapping nor even truncating. It shows the whole long label not even the eclipses that causes the chart to shrink.
Would appreciate any help on this since no text wrapping is making the chart unusable.

Check out Nevron Chart for SSRS - it allows you to wrap the category labels.
