Is it possible to make a single bar in a stacked chart wider than they appear by default?
It takes more space in a chart, to increase a bar, need to increase a size of whole chart then only it is visible.
Can we get a option to increase the width of a single bar stacked chart?

Atribute slicer has it and it works 0K there
Unfortunately, Atribute slicer is not approved by PBI (even it is Microsoft product)
All in all every day is better

Unfortunately, this is not done yet. The functionality implemented in April 2020 allows the user to control the width of all bars. What we would like to see is the possibility to choose a single bar and manipulate its width. Fingers crossed this is introduced soon.

This seems to have been done. See https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/16737364-allow-configurable-gap-width-between-columns-bars

It's crazy that this is not a feature. We get a lot of blank space, and it makes it harder to show the numbers as well, as they disappear or have to be with very small font size.

Come on, how is this not a thing Microsoft? We are not allowed to use Tableau, but you sure are making it difficult for me to integrate PowerBI in my work because of all the limitations!

This is a must. It's this kind of simple things that prevents using PBI with "Older" management team that are not happy with the formatting

Can we get an option to increase the width of a single bar in bar type charts? Tableau has this feature.
This is really helpful.

I tried the Multi axis chart and you can do this easily - https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA200000183?tab=Overview
