I created an Excel workbook with an XML feed from A.W.rd.A.Day: http://wordsmith.org/awad/rss1.xml. I created a table in PV; text in the description of the word is cut off. I upload to PBI and create a tile. Text in the tile is also cut off. Not cool!

In the May release of Power BI Desktop, we launched the preview of the new table visual. Both the new table and new matrix visuals have support for word wrap in cells.

RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
I will ask again, can Will or someone from PSFT Product Management reply on a commitment to implement this, in full as outlined in the comments/descriptions, and an ETA of implementation? Clients in a holding pattern, will not deploy further until in place.

This has been out there since November 25th, 2014 - this request. This is a major gap in Power BI!

We should have a feature to text wrap in Card/Multirow card etc.
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
This limits the capabilities to use this as a dashboard product because I'm either forced to limit the character size of the text to something that's not descriptive enough or have the entire text and force the user to scroll. Please implement

Need to be able to text wrap

Please add this -- impossible to effectively show our data (table and multi-row cards)

To the collective of people who commented and voted for this CRITICAL Capability - I suggest you forward this Page and Request to all in your network and community to vote/comment. It is shocking that this is not in - we are an ISV that is changing the game of Power BI for the Fortune 1000 - this lack of capability is hurting the roll-outs, user adoption, the users and MSFT. I am amazed that Will and Product team have not responded on an ETA

Getting flexibility over the way text is presented is a very limiting factor in Power BI now and really needs to be addressed.
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
Shocked this isn't already a feature. Without this functionality the use of Power BI for all reports is limited.

As Power BI is moving up the stack, with recent Gartner Magic Quadrant 2016 BI report, Enterprise Customers are starting to really consider this as well as ISVs, your competition has this - this is a "table stake" basic capability, and not having it is limiting your deployments/use cases
