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. To learn more about the new table visual, check out this blog post: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-may-feature-summary/

Word wrap on legends in pie and donut charts!
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
Hi,
I also believe this item should be re-opened. In Jan 2017, Amanda said Power BI would close the item "once once word wrap is fully supported across tables, matrix, and cards." However, it's not implemented in cards. Cards are probably the most used visual by team and the inability to word wrap the category label takes up a lot of space.
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
This needs to be re-opened, there is still no chance to word wrap Labels on X-axis. This really is a basic functionality, and lack of this makes most Power BI reports virtually undeadable (especially vertical bar charts. ), when the only way to find out what a bar is describing is to hover over it with a mouse.
You cannot give any kind of a presentation with graphs like this.
And even if you category, etc is something like 12 characters long, basically the only way to make it readable is either to change font really small or make the graph whole page wide.
I can't believe you have missed this basic fundamental functionality, and I can't believe you have closed this idea without fixing this properly.

This is completed on the Desktop side but this word wrap does not function when posted to Power BI report server.

We have the same problem. Text wrap on card, hierarchy slicers etc. strongly needed. Are you going to extend the functionality?
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
Text wrap on card and multi card needed. As is the ability to format adjust all the text inside it ie. reduce the gap between different measures on a multi card.
Would be less of a problem if you had labels built into maps or multiple KPI's!
Basic stuff even excel can do better.

Wordwrap in tables does not seem to be working for me. I am using the most recent (February 2018) desktop, and the US gov service. We really need this.

Word wrap is badly needed on Power BI Report Server. Adding my voice to the chorus here.
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
Is there anyway to wrap my titles of tables and graphs? This is SUCH a basic function, the lack of it is borderline criminal and explains why Power BI is falling way behind other data visualisation software
RE: Text wrap in tables, cards, etc.! -- in dashboards and reports.
Text wrapping needed on the Power BI Report Server (on premise) as well. I have setup Table and Matrix...wrapped on Power BI Desktop then found later that it does not support by Power BI Report Server. Thank you!
