    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/

    This seems like such a basic day 1 feature. Cant believe this is now almost 2 years after the idea was posted and still not released.

    How hard can this be?

    I should also add that it would be great to be able to wrap titles of cards. That way we can use a largely vertically shaped card and take advantage of wrapping in the title.

    This became a priority to me. There could be some sort of option in Format to enable or disable word wrap in tables, cards, matrices or any visual. Any news on when this will be out?
