Do we have any soltion ? I am also facing same issue. I also want to have lable at 90 dgree

No, there is no solution as such for this issue. You need to adjust the visual size in such a way that orientation becomes 90 degree.

It is a dynamic thing, and the way you can get that to happen is by making the chart more and more narrow, until the vertical labels are achieved.  I have added a couple of pics of how I got it to work.  Not sure you can make this meet your needs, but this is what i found that works.

this does not fix actual issue. This is a workaround. We need vertical orientation for text.

I am not aware of a way to control the orientation of axis label text in Desktop. You could post this as an Idea if it is not already out there.
